Top Tips for Avoiding Joint Pain During the Winter

The winter months can increase the likelihood of pain in the joints, but there are things that you can do to minimise the effects of the cold weather.

  • It is imperative to keep wrapped up. This can help prevent the muscles from contracting around the nerve endings and minimise pain.

  • Thermal and body shapewear can help to keep the body warm.

  • Take joint care supplements such as vitamin C and Omega 3.

  • Stretching the body, especially in the mornings and evenings can help to keep the joints supple and release tension.

  • Regular exercise is extremely effective, but be careful of carrying out strenuous exercise outdoors as this can lead to injury.

  • Exercise indoors is preferable during the winter months.
