Contact us today for more information, and follow our helpful tips below: 5 Tips for Preventing Injuries During Your Summertime Activities 1. Prepare for the terrain. Are you planning on hiking, climbing, or strolling through a trail this summer? If so, it is important to prepare for the terrain beforehand. Knee injuries are common when moving along unsteady surfaces. Hiking boots with proper traction will help you maneuver those uneven terrains without the risk of slipping or falling. If needed, custom orthotics may also be fitted to your boots, in order to make the journey easier and more comfortable for you, in addition to decreasing your risk of injury. Are you part of a summer sports team? If so, it is important to make sure you prepare your body for the upcoming season beforehand! Use this time to start training, maintaining a nutritious diet, and strengthening the necessary parts of your body. This will help avoid unnecessary injuries during your season. At Physical Therapy and Rehab Specialists, we offer sports performance and training classes to train your body for your specific sport! Contact us to find out how we can get you to your peak performance for your summer team. 2. Train for your summer teams.
