Running as a preventive measure
September 8, 2022SparksHealth InformationPhysiotherapyRunningSurgery2

Running has several health benefits. They include:

* Strengthens the bones

*Tones up the muscles

*Works up the heart

*may help prevent future knee replacement surgery

 

 

But before you start running,

*Talk to a physiotherapist (some of the reasons for this include but not limited to: know if you are fit to engage in running, to prescribe the appropriate strengthening exercises for you if need be)

*Avoid running if your hip or knee or ankle hurts

*Ensure you have the proper footwear, go for a good quality firm comfortable running shoes

*Start slowly

*Running on a firm flat grassy surface is better
