Physiotherapy in NE Calgary for Cheerleading
Cheerleading began as a way to promote school unity and rally a team to victory; however, in the 130 years that have followed, cheerleading has developed into a highly skilled and competitive athletic event in its own right.
Modern cheerleading combines elements of
gymnastics with tosses, partner stunts and pyramid building to wow the crowd. While these risky
athletic elements add excitement and entertainment to cheerleading routines, they also increase the
risk of injury. Ligament sprains, muscle strains, fractures, back pain and overuse injuries of the
arms are the most common.
Having trouble showing your school spirit because you are in
constant pain? Is your spot in the pyramid at risk because you are sidelined by injury?
Working with a physiotherapist can help you recover from an injury faster and reduce (if not
eliminate) your chronic pain. A personalized physiotherapy routine can also strengthen your body,
improve your flexibility and enhance your agility and coordination, helping prevent future injuries.
So don’t let your cheer disappear with an injury; talk to your physiotherapist about finding the
right techniques and treatments for you.
