P<\/span>hysiotherapy: a good partner for skiers!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here is a summary of the article published by the Ordre professionnel de la physioth\u00e9rapie du Qu\u00e9bec.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A sport for all tastes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A discipline where sport and nature are one<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Undeniable physical advantages<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the apparent ease with which you can ski down the slopes, alpine skiing is a sport that requires stamina, technique, and also good muscular condition. Indeed it is important to remember that skiing is rarely limited to a single run. This activity requires endurance from your body. It also develops balance and proprioception. Undeniable physical advantages<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traumatic injuries: watch out for falls – to the neck, head, thumbs and back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overuse injuries: knee injury: patellofemoral syndrome<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The right reflexes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you experience pain after skiing or if the pain persists and prevents you from doing certain daily activities (climbing stairs, squatting, etc.), it is recommended that you consult a health professional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In physiotherapy, there are many effective ways to treat and reduce pain due to Rotatoriofemoral Syndrome (RFS). The physiotherapy professional will suggest stretching, strengthening exercises and ensure that good posture is maintained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lack of technique: one of the main causes of ski injuries<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beginner who has learned to ski alone, without the help of an instructor, is even more likely to get injured, because his technique is not optimal. The skier who has taken courses will be more able to ski safely and will have developed the skills necessary to deal with the slopes. He will also be able to choose the type of track that suits him best and thus avoid going on tracks that are too dangerous and not adapted to his level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Physiotherapy: a good partner for skiers! Physiotherapy is a very important ally for the skier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to start skiing and have questions about proper practices or if you feel pain during the activity, do not hesitate to consult a physiotherapy professional. He will be able to advise you, determine your physical weaknesses and accompany you before, during and after your season on the slopes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You should also be aware that some physiotherapy clinics focus on treatment and advice for athletes. Please also note that Stephan Guindon and Warwick Long hold degrees in physical education and osteopathy and can help you with fitness and treatment of ski injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
