According to studies, what is more important than a single \u00abcorrect\u00bb lifting technique is that the back, hips, and legs are accustomed to carrying weight. Therefore, we focus on gradual strength building, including using free weights, and practice hip hinge and trunk tension as tools that will help you feel confident when lifting.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"36\">A wrong movement while lifting a crate of water, and suddenly a sharp pain shoots through the lower back. <b data-path-to-node=\"36\" data-index-in-node=\"118\">Back pain when lifting<\/b> are the classic reason for an urgent appointment in our Zurich practice. It is important to understand that the spine is naturally extremely robust. Pain only occurs when the acting load exceeds the current capacity of your tissue.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"37\">When lifting from the floor, the strong muscles of the thighs and buttocks should do the main work. If there is a lack of strength here or if a neighboring joint is blocked (such as a stiff ankle or an immobile hip), the <b data-path-to-node=\"37\" data-index-in-node=\"240\">lumbar spine<\/b> compensate for the movement. We analyze in the <a href=\"https:\/\/physio-waidfuss.ch\/en\/offer\/\">Physiotherapy Waidfuss<\/a> exactly these biomechanical chains.<\/p>\n<h3>Typical symptoms<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Suddenly shooting, stabbing pain in the lower back immediately upon lifting a load<\/li>\n<li>Restriction of movement and precautions after the acute event<\/li>\n<li>Muscle tension in the lower back, sometimes radiating to the groin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"51\">\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-11666-1\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-11666-1-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-11666-1-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"1\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t><h3 class=\"widget-title\">Back pain when lifting <\/h3>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p data-path-to-node=\"38\">Our treatment relies on concrete craftsmanship and active training:<\/p>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"39\">\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"39,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"39,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Pain Modulation &amp; Manual Therapy:<\/b> In cases of acute blockages or lumbago, we reduce the extreme protective tension in the back muscles.

Research has taken a more nuanced approach. A Cochrane review of nine randomized studies involving over 20,000 employees found with moderate certainty that training in lifting techniques, with or without assistive devices, does not prevent back pain better than no training (<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/21678349\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Verbeek et al., 2011<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Even a rounded back when lifting is, according to current knowledge, not a clear risk factor: A systematic review found no evidence that more bending of the lumbar spine during lifting causes or maintains back pain; however, the certainty of the findings is low (<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/31775556\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Saraceni et al., 2020<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>For you, this means that you don't have to be afraid of any movement. What matters is that your body gets stronger and accustomed to heavier loads step by step. The tips below help you feel confident when lifting, but they are not rigid rules.<\/p>\n<h3>Self-help: How to relieve back pain in everyday life<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p><b>Elevate near the body:<\/b> Hold the load as close to your body as possible, rather than with your arms outstretched.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><b>Legs instead of back:<\/b> Get on your knees and use your leg strength to lift the load.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><b>Activate hull:<\/b> Just before lifting, contract your abdominal and back muscles slightly.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><b>Avoid rotational movements:<\/b> Never lift with a bent and twisted back at the same time.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>When should you see a doctor or go to physical therapy?<\/h3>\n<p>Seek medical or physical therapy help promptly if you experience any of the following after lifting: <b>Pain radiating into the leg<\/b>, a numbness occurs, strength in the leg or foot decreases, or the pain does not subside after one to two weeks despite rest.<\/p>\n<p>Many of our patients also use our services to targetly build up their trunk and leg strength. <a href=\"https:\/\/physio-waidfuss.ch\/en\/offer\/small-group-training\/\">Small group training<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The correct pattern of movement when lifting can be learned: In the <a href=\"https:\/\/physio-waidfuss.ch\/en\/offer\/movement\/\">Functional Movement Theory (FBL)<\/a> We train exactly these everyday movements.<\/p>\n<h2 data-path-to-node=\"44\">Frequently asked questions about back pain when lifting<\/h2>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"45\"><b data-path-to-node=\"45\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">1. What is the best first aid for acute lower back pain (lumbago) after lifting?<\/b> Avoid strict bed rest. Many find the supine position (lying on your back with your lower legs placed at a 90-degree angle on a chair) to be relieving. Stay as active as your pain allows; movement usually helps more than rest.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"46\"><b data-path-to-node=\"46\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">2. Am I even allowed to train with weights if I have back pain?<\/b> Yes, absolutely. Properly dosed and under clinical supervision in our practice in Wipkingen, free weights are a very effective tool for preparing the back for the stresses of everyday life in Zurich.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"47\"><b data-path-to-node=\"47\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">3. Is lifting with a rounded back fundamentally harmful?<\/b> No. The spine should be allowed to curve. A systematic review found no evidence that a curved back causes or maintains back pain when lifting heavy objects (Saraceni et al., 2020). The important thing is to gradually get used to carrying heavier loads.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"48\"><b data-path-to-node=\"48\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">4. Do you also treat radiating pain into the leg (sciatica)?<\/b> Yes. If the pain radiates into the leg after lifting, we use specific neurological and manual tests to check whether a nerve root is irritated and adjust the therapy accordingly.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"49\"><b data-path-to-node=\"49\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">5. How long will it take before I can lift heavy things again?<\/b> That depends on the tissue damage. An acute muscle strain often settles down after 1-2 weeks. However, the sustainable development of core and leg strength to prevent relapses requires 8 to 12 weeks of regular training.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"51\">Do not let the fear of lifting dictate your daily life.
