Get Ready for the Ski Season! Physical Therapy for Skiers

Winter is approaching, and with it comes the desire to spend free time on the slopes. Skiing is not only great fun but also puts a lot of strain on your joints and muscles. To avoid injuries and fully enjoy your winter fun, it's worth preparing your body properly.

Why is pre-ski season physical therapy important?

Regular exercises that strengthen deep muscles, improve balance and coordination are the foundation for safe skiing. A physiotherapist will help you identify any muscle imbalances and strengthen weak areas. As a result, you will be better prepared for the challenges that await you on the slopes.

Which body parts should you pay special attention to?

Leg muscles: Especially the quadriceps, hamstrings, adductors, and abductors. They are responsible for the stability of the knee and hip.
Core muscles: A strong core provides proper posture and absorbs shock during skiing.
Upper body muscles: Strengthened shoulder and arm muscles will improve your stability and allow you to control your skis better.

What exercises should you do?

Strengthening exercises: Squats, lunges, deadlifts, planks, push-ups.
Balance exercises: Standing on one leg, exercises on a bosu ball, balancing on an unstable surface.
Stretching exercises: Regular stretching will improve muscle flexibility and prevent injuries.

When should you see a physiotherapist?

If you have any joint or muscle problems.
If you have previously had a sports-related injury.
If you want to get an individual training plan tailored to your needs.
