If you do physically demanding work, you may be at greater risk of musculoskeletal injuries that can lead to back pain.

Repetitive tasks, heavy lifting, pushing, pulling and long hours on your feet can place ongoing strain on the spine, increasing the risk of injury and, over time, impacting both physical and mental wellbeing.

Join the Spinal Health Month Movement (1–30 June) and adjust your thinking, because a healthy spine supports a healthy mind.
