*Health %w V iews If you are going to shovelesnow, be careful, There's nothing prettier than a new-fallen snow-nothing more dangerous either. Each year wehear'about the nu rnerous heart attacks and strokes that occur as the resuit of overexertion.' The tragedy of the fatal or near-fatal resuht of an apparently healthy persan succumbing ta shoveling snaw tends ta overshadow a hazard that is even more common. The saine snow which causes heart stress also causes dangerous spinal distress to the' shoveler. When you consider that a shovel af snow weighs 5 ta 7 pounds, you realize the treniendlous accuniulative weight one bas ta lifî ta clear an area. The average driveway or walk- wil hold hundreds of pounids ofsenow. Snow seems ta present a challenge ta 'most* shovelers; the cold air invigarates theni ta action; and the samne cold air numbs their sense of pain and fatigue, thereby xnasking the severity of sprain and strain. The resuit: too much exertion and too much w'ork without rest breaks.' Doctors of chiropractie recommend the folowing rulis ta guard againat the snow.shoveier syndrome: 1. Dress warmnly, but don't bundie up so as ta make it difficuit and awkward for you ta move naturaliy. 2. Use a lightweight pusher-type shovel. Spray it with Tefloàn'o, snow will not dling ta it. 3. Try flot ta lift the snow or pitch it. Mereiy push it inta a pile 4. Avoidsudden'twists af the torso. Move -the entire body 5. Keep your back straight when you lift. Use your legs rather than your baci. 6. Work slowly. 7. ffyou fee] tired or short of breath, stop and take a rest. Stand up straight and breathe deeply. 8. If yau feel a twinge, of back pain, stop campieteiy and go inside the house, Isit down and rest. With snow, it's wiser ta, use the head, instead of the back. Learn ta shovel both rlght and left handed and change frequently. Under chiropractie care, a patient is ceither treated or referred after a comprehiensive differentiai diagnosis. flbse lscaltbview. are .publled by imenibers of lthe GOntaMI Chfropr*ctie Assodatloa la thse lntcrcs of botter publi heahth.
