Ski Trip Safety - Feb 24, 2016

2/24/2016

0 Comments

 
Skiing and snowboarding are among the most popular winter activities for Canadians. However we inevitably get post-ski trip consultations for knee pain, concussions, or back pain. Read the following tips to stay safe, and limit soreness before going on skiing trips:

  • Take Lessons – If you are skiing for the first time, consult a professional in order to hone your technique, and ensure you are limiting the stress on your joints
  • Check Your Equipment – Ensure older equipment is tightened, well-fitted, and repaired
  • Wear a Helmet – Head protection can limit serious head injuries. More than 50% of skiers now wear helmets on the slopes
  • Warm-Up – Performing some repetitions of squats, lunges and back stretches will loosen up your joints and limit soreness after your trip
  • Less is More – Even if you are feeling good while skiing, limit the number of hours on the slopes, especially if you are going for multiple days. Fewer enjoyable hours, are better than more hours with soreness
