June is here which means it’s time for summer! Here are a few tips for protecting your back this summer:

• Stay hydrated: The weather is going to get warm which means our bodies are going to need more water. Our joints need water in order to move easily and without pain. 
• Go swimming: Swimming is a great exercise for your back. The water relieves pressure on your back which allows your body to relax.
• Rest: After a long day of doing activities, it’s important that you rest your back. If you’re back is hurting a little at the end of the day, try applying some ice.
