Let the games begin! The winter season of sports and activities has arrived in New Fairfield, CT. Whether you’re a novice or a seasoned pro, it’s crucial to take precautions to prevent injuries this winter.
Snow, ice, and cold weather create a beautiful backdrop—but also bring risks like slips, falls, and strains. Those indulging in winter sports are far more likely to experience injuries if they haven’t properly prepared their bodies ahead of time.
Properly warming up your body is even more essential in cold weather. Lower temperatures reduce blood flow to the extremities, increasing the risk of muscle spasms, strains, and tears. Always insulate well and warm up before both indoor and outdoor activities.
Shoveling snow is a winter staple for most in New Fairfield, and improper technique can lead to serious back pain or injuries. Follow these tips to stay safe:
After shoveling, apply an ice pack to sore areas for 20 minutes, then remove for a couple of hours. Repeat twice a day for a few days if needed.
Lingering pain, soreness, or strain that lasts longer than expected may signal something deeper. At Chiropractic Life and Wellness Center, our expert team is here to support your winter health and recovery with compassionate, personalized chiropractic care.
