Joint discomfort is sometimes a barrier to physical
activity. It is essential to preserve its joints without changing the physical
inactivity. Discover our tips to maintain joint mobility and choose the right
sports.
THE JOINTS, A SENSITIVE MECHANISM
The joints work thanks to complex and fragile mechanisms. The
shoulder, for example, allows large-scale multidirectional movements but can be
dislocated more easily than any other joint. Conversely, the knee allows
movements on a single plane: flexing or tending, and does not support lateral
twists.
Poor posture, some repetitive gestures or with too much
force, can have adverse effects on the joints. However, it is essential to
solicit them to maintain their mobility. The regular practice of physical
activity helps in their proper functioning and also contributes to the
management of the weight that will relieve the joints.
It is therefore advisable to move, certainly, but
privileging some sports gentle for the joints! Finally, to preserve your bony
capital and your joints, opt for a micronutritional accompaniment!
PRESERVE YOUR JOINTS BY MICRONUTRITION
Some dietary supplements or massage gels are formulated
specifically to maintain joint comfort. Natural solutions that rely on:
- The benefits of plants: harpagophytum, also called "devil's claws" and horsetail are particularly recognized to help maintain joint flexibility and mobility.
- Micronutrients: Silanetriol (organic silicon) is known for its soothing effects on joint discomfort. The manganese contributes to the normal formation of connective tissues and the maintenance of normal bones.
- Assets, major constituents of cartilaginous tissue, glucosamine sulfate and chondroitin sulfate.
- Active ingredients, major constituents of bone, such as hydroxyapatite, a true source of calcium, a mineral essential for maintaining a good bone structure.
- Essential oils such as wintergreen, katafray or black pepper.
MILD SPORTS FOR JOINTS
The swimming or water aerobics are working every muscle in
the body. Moreover, these are so-called sports (water relieving the body of its
weight). They are interesting for joints.
The practice of cycling is also recommended, making sure to
stay on stable ground to avoid impacts too violent (the VTT is therefore
excluded).
Finally, activities such as weight training, yoga or soft
gym allow you to maintain your muscles without putting your joints to the test.
