Therefore, we need to consider the following tips in order to wear the bag around the shoulders and remains in good health.

Reduce the contents of the bag 

Should be recognized that as women, we often bring too much stuff in our bags that are not always required. Perhaps the best reason why we meet the bag with a lot of stuff is because we want the stuff there in case we suddenly need it. However, unfortunately there are who feel tormented by the action of precaution, that is our body. Backs, shoulders, neck, hands, even the head can become victims of the heavy burden on them every day. You are advised to always double-check the contents of the bag and get rid of stuff that really does not need to be taken. Weigh yourself when you're carrying a bag, do not carry a bag that weighs more than 1.25 kg.

Choose a bag with wide straps 

No matter what the brand of your favorite bag, you are advised to choose the width of the bag has a piece of rope. Width strap helped in dividing the body weight of burden to be borne, so the burden is not only delegated bodies at one point only.

Stretch your neck and shoulders

You can prevent gout caused by poor load bags with strengthening the muscles of the body itself. Perform movements such as rowing, by standing straight and stretch your arms straight ahead, then do movements such as rowing boats. Then massage / squeeze your shoulder with your chin slightly raised. Repeat 10 times count for each hand.

Consider the waist bag

In the early 1990s, waist bag had tasted glory as one of the accessories fashionable in appearance. Its small as 'forcing' users to pocket the little stuff. Even if you put it in sideways at the waist, but the load is in the bag was supported by the body as a whole (because the waist is located at the midpoint of the human body), not only by the shoulder or back only. So, obviously this bag will not cause pain in your shoulders or back.

Change position 

 
Most of us have a position carrying a bag that is always the same. Nobody likes to carry by hand, arm, right shoulder or left shoulder. However, for the salvation of your body, then you should abandon the habit.
Try to change the position of the bag, at least every 5 minutes, so that blood flow in the body remains smooth. If you shop at the store, then you can change the position of carrying a bag each time you enter or exit the store.

Give a safety rope

If your strap is not comfortable, then cover with a cloth belt (like the one on the seat belt in the car) for more comfortable shoulder or hand.

Switch to backpack

One clue that has managed to load bags injure your shoulder position is that so out of balance / tilt to one side. If a shoulder problem, then now is the time you switch on a backpack. Just keep sure that you bring a small size and do not put too much stuff.

Wear the bag close to the body

When asked how best to carry the bags, the answer is to keep the bag was still attached to the position close to the body. Bring bag bag load close to the body in order to load an existing one with the weight of the body.
Therefore, wherever possible, look for a bag that could cut across the body when taken, but make sure that the rope is not too long. For the longer strap, shoulder the burden of getting turned down (by gravity).

Wear shoes that are friendly

If you must lift a big bag and take it only on one side of the body, then at least support the body with the right shoes. Selection of shoes can give a lot of difference. Sandals thin can cause major problems for the spine and your joints. The best shoes to balance their heavy luggage are shoes with rubber soles.
