3 Tips To Prevent Joint Pain

It is extremely important to take preventative steps in keeping your joints healthy in order to live a healthy and pain-free life!

1. Be mindful of harmful habits: Carrying a heavy backpack and/or purse everyday, prolonged periods of sitting, long periods of looking down at your phone, repetitive bending and lifting without proper mechanics, and ignoring pain or injuries can all lead to dysfunctional/painful joints.

2. Incorporate low-impact exercises into your day along with any other training you perform: Swimming, cycling, yoga and walking all present low-impact on your joints while weight bearing. Including strength training also helps protect your joints!

3. Nutrient-dense foods: the average American diet does not provide proper nutrients and can actually promote chronic inflammation in the body which in return can significantly hurt joints over the years.
