Physiotherapy in NE Calgary for Snowboarding
Thank you for visiting SEWA CityScape Physiotherapy’s resource about
snowboarding.
To the uninitiated, snowboarders may be looked at as daredevils or
competitors in an extreme sport. While many snowboarders, both professional and amateur, have
the risk-taking gene and an incredible sense of adventure driving them as they strap their board to
their feet, the best snowboarders, like Brent Meyer, know that utmost care, conditioning, and caution must be used when partaking
in this quick growing and exciting sport.
Interestingly enough, the most common snowboarding
injury occurs to the upper body as opposed to the lower body. The wrist is a particular target when
trying to catch yourself or overcorrecting prior to a fall.
This area of our site is
designed to help you, the snowboarder, learn the best techniques and exercises to stay healthy and
unhurt as you hurtle down the slopes — so you can spend more time catching air and less time being
“crashtastic.”
