Body mechanics education focuses on teaching individuals how to move in a way that minimizes strain on the body, reduces the risk of injury, and improves overall functional efficiency. It involves teaching proper techniques for lifting, bending, reaching, and sitting to avoid unnecessary pressure on muscles and joints.

Proper body mechanics are particularly important for individuals with musculoskeletal conditions, those recovering from surgery or injury, and in the workplace to prevent occupational injuries. Body mechanics education also includes ergonomic adjustments to workstations, posture training, and injury prevention strategies.

By learning and applying correct body mechanics, individuals can prevent injuries, reduce pain, and improve movement efficiency in daily activities.
