Strong Spine System™ manual handling training
The Strong Spine System™ is a proven effective coaching method that was first developed by Kingsley Flett over 15 years ago and has continued to evolve into its current form. The patented Strong Spine System™ gives workers all the skills they need to lower their personal injury risk.
The Strong Spine System manual handling training includes:
- information on how to assess a task for manual handling risk
- lessons on how to assess personal injury risk
- coaching on lifting and other common manual handling techniques
- core strength education
- preventative exercises
- recovery exercises.
All of our physiotherapists are accredited Strong Spine Trainers and the sessions they conduct are in many ways the antithesis of most manual handling training; participants rarely sit still and are instead engaged in a series of physical skill progressions – much like the coaching process you see in sport, to learn the most practical injury prevention behaviours.
These sessions can be either delivered from a generic package, or made bespoke to your workplace. The Strong Spine System™ is most effective when coupled with visual aids such as site posters (key references from the presentation) and toolbox reminder sessions to embed the strong spine principles into the workplace safety culture.
