Read on to hear Hot Tips from our Principal Physiotherapist above how to utilise stretching as an injury prevention method...
Did you know?
It's more beneficial to stretch post-activity, after exercise or sport, while muscles are still warm. You can also stretch after a warm shower or bath.
Extend your stretch until you can feel it - don't push into pain. A stretch should feel like a gentle pull. Listen to your body and stop if you feel pain.
It is important that you are doing stretches with correct positioning so that you don't injure yourself.
If you need advice on how to stretch correctly for injury prevention and management, please get in contact and we would be delighted to help. Phone us on 6818 6268.
