Clean properly to avoid straining the body.
To clean is a physical task, and it is therefore important not to strain the body unnecessarily. Muscle and joint pain can occur due to cleaning work. With some simple tips, you can learn to clean properly and not strain your body.
-
Movements: Avoid awkward positions and think about your posture. When mopping, move your feet from side to side to reduce the load on the upper body. It is also important to bend your legs instead of your back. Moreover, regularly look up to avoid always looking down at the surface being cleaned. This will help stretch and straighten your neck. Also, work with cleaning tools close to your body, because moving them away from your body increases the load.
-
Cleaning tools: A good starting point is to adjust cleaning tools to your body instead of forcing your body to fit the cleaning tool. For instance, a vacuum cleaner should not be too heavy and should be comfortable to grip. Hose and tube should also be adjusted to your height.
-
Protective products: Protective products such as gloves and hearing protection are important to prevent, for example, skin dryness or hearing damage.
-
Training and breaks: Training builds up the body, making it strong enough to handle cleaning tasks. Regular exercise and physical activity are therefore beneficial for the body, as well as taking breaks while cleaning so that the body can recover and rest.
