Winterlude has officially kicked off in Ottawa and the streets are busy around the canal and downtown. With icy sidewalks and more time spent outdoors, it is important to move mindfully and take care of your body.
A few simple reminders to stay safe:
- Choose footwear with good grip
- Slow your pace on icy surfaces
- Warm up before skating or long walks
- Pay attention to aches and pains before they worsen
If winter activities leave you feeling sore or stiff, our team at Physiotherapy on Kent & on Main are here to help you stay active and injury free all season.
