Stay Fit and Injury-Free with Spring Physiotherapy
This Week's Tip: Preventing Shoulder Strain for Pickleball Players
Shoulders work hard during pickleball, so protecting them is essential. Try these exercises:
Wall Angels: Stand with your back against a wall and arms bent at 90 degrees. Slowly raise and lower your arms along the wall like making a snow angel. Do 10 repetitions.
External Rotations: Use a light resistance band. Hold it with both hands, elbows bent at your sides. Pull the band outward, keeping your elbows tucked. Repeat 15 times.
Prevent shoulder strain and enhance your game by visiting Spring Physiotherapy for a Fit For Life Assessment. Call 902-453-1525 extension 2 or email admin@springphysio.ca to book today!

Good Dink
Good Dink has been working hard in the background and plans to have their website up by the end of the month! In the meantime, you can try on their sample clothing at CC Dartmouth and order products by emailing them at gooddinkco@gmail.com. All products purchased will be dropped off at CC Dartmouth once they are ready.
Table Tennis Room
Did you know we have a table tennis room available? You can book it the same way you book a court! Playing table tennis can be a fun and helpful way to improve transferable skills for pickleball. It’s also a great option when courts are fully booked or to add on after a one-hour pickleball session. Whether for practice or just some extra fun, the table tennis room is a fantastic resource for all players.
Have a great week and wear your safety glasses (preferrably on the courts and preferrably on your face!)
