Don't Let Your Camping Trip End with a Sore Back
Camping is one of the best parts of a Montana summer, but sleeping on uneven ground, hauling coolers, and setting up camp can leave you feeling stiff before the adventure even begins.
Here are a few PT-approved tips:
🏕️ Use a supportive sleeping pad or air mattress.
🛏️ Keep your neck in a neutral position with the right pillow.
🎒 Lift coolers and gear with your legs, not your back.
🚶 Take a short walk and stretch before crawling into your sleeping bag.
☀️ Spend five minutes moving in the morning before packing up camp.
A little preparation can help you enjoy the memories instead of the muscle soreness. If you are still not seeing an improvement with pain - give your Excel Team a call. We've got your Back!
