As spring arrives, the warmer weather opens an opportunity for all kinds of outdoor activities. Whether you head outdoors to play golf, soccer, baseball, or tennis, you will want to ensure you’re properly protected. The same is true if you are rollerblading, skateboarding, hiking, or biking. There are millions of sports-related injuries that occur each year. At Dirks Chiropractic, we want to ensure Greenville, NC, residents are ready for the season ahead with some wellness tips to help avoid injury.
Regardless of the outdoor activity you are going to partake in, before doing so, you must stretch. This will help avoid an unnecessary injury as well as muscle strains and pulls. Those aches and pains that you would normally feel the next morning after working muscles that you haven’t in several months are basically non-existent if you warm-up first. Routine chiropractic care treatments can also help in this retrospect.
If you are trying something new, or if you are continuing previous outdoor activities that you love, you need to ensure you are wearing the proper gear and using the right equipment. It isn’t uncommon to wait a little while and ensure you enjoy partaking in a certain activity before buying the necessary protective gear. Be aware, however, that longer you go without purchasing the right equipment, the more likely you will get injured.
While you may not feel tired, it is imperative that your take breaks and focus on getting proper rest. Without rest, you are increasing your risk of injury, falling ill, or more.
If you have suffered an injury during spring outdoor activities, Dirks Chiropractic can help with chiropractic treatment, laser therapy, and more. Contact us today by calling (252) 751-0660 so our chiropractor in Greenville, NC can help.
