Nordic Walking in the post - operative rehabilitation of breast cancer

Nordic Walking offers degrees possibilities for health and well-being of the woman who has been diagnosed and surgically removed breast cancer .

From the smallest operations and conservative to the most disabling Nordic Walking is a great asset in improving the motor autonomy and reduce decisively post- surgical complications .

After the post -operative phase and the initial recovery may occur or become chronic problems ranging from simple pain, motor deficit , the winged scapula , to lymphedema . After a first phase carried out with the physical therapist , the Nordic Walking Instructor Graduated I.S.E.F. or a degree in Sports Science will accompany the customer to a full physical recovery by evaluating the upper limb limitations and shoulder identifying a suitable and personalized movement strategy strategy.

The use of sticks and the supervision of an experienced instructor graduate I.S.E.F. or a degree in Sports Science will allow us to limit the physical problems caused by the operation through the appropriate use of sticks .

The oscillatory movement of the arm , the use of the forearm muscles to the opening-closing cycle of the hand , the cyclical movement of the limbs and the development of aerobic system using training methods both external load and internal , allows to considerably improve an the biggest problems : lymphedema . The recovery of the limb range of motion upper and limiting the A ccumulo chronic interstitial fluid level , allows you to find a more "natural size " and regain a better sense of freedom and " lightness" in the daily lives of every day .

Instructors of the Official School of Nordic Walking A.N.W.I. San Marino , graduates I.S.E.F. or graduates in Science Engines are available for clarification and information on how to improve post - surgical chronic complications of breast cancer and to follow the customer in the process of improvement of upper limb function and the full physical recovery .

Multiple Sclerosis and Nordic Walking benefits

Multiple Sclerosis is a highly disabling disease that can be " born " better if it is done light exercise and aerobics . For people suffering from multiple sclerosis who have a good battery Nordic Walking is a great opportunity to improve the state of physical well-being and the degree of " self-efficacy " perceived .

The choice of working volumes , easily adjustable thanks to the great modularity intensity in Nordic walking , and the use of 90 % of the muscles in the open offer many benefits for people with multiple sclerosis : a better relationship with body improving coordination and motor control , to an increase in aerobic endurance , to the advantage of " free your mind " and to " lighten the burden " that the disease creates a mental level .

Instructors of the Official School of Nordic Walking A.N.W.I. - San Marino , graduates I.S.E.F. or graduates in Science Engines are available for clarification and information on how to improve the psycho - physical state with defined movement and appropriate to the actual motor skills of the client.

Parkinson's disease and Nordic Walking's benefits

Nordic Walking is a physical activity that can give great benefits to people with Parkinson's disease who enjoy a good motor autonomy.

Parkinson's disease generates well- documented in the scientific literature mobility difficulties such as declining of 'balance , the difficulty to articulate properly the foot and ankle, dragging his heels , a tendency to " close " forward and down and curving forward.

Nordic Walking offers degrees for improvement of the most common problems of Parkinson's disease through the appropriate use of sticks . Instructors of the Official School of Nordic Walking A.N.W.I. -San Marino , graduates I.S.E.F. or graduates in Sports Science , will assess the correct progression of exercises to optimize energy and have the best physical result .

The correct use of the sticks together with the experience of professionals Graduates I.S.E.F. Graduates in Sports Science or the School will improve coordination and balance , improving the design of the step , recover the commuting of the upper limbs , reinforce the erector of the column giving a more " open posture " and donate fun and " mental freedom " thanks outdoor activity .

For information on the rehabilitation and training sessions specifically designed for people suffering from Parkinson's disease by professionals Graduates I.S.E.F. or graduates in Sciences of the Official School of Nordic Walking A.N.W.I. -San Marino please call 3331935304 or send an e - mail to info@nordicwalkingrimini.com

Calcifications and tendon injuries to the shoulders and benefits of Nordic Walking

Nordic Walking is a physical activity suitable for the rehabilitation of the Rotator cuff problems , cervical pain and problems of the upper limbs .

After the first phase of rehabilitation with physiotherapist remains the need to " mobilize " the shoulder without traumatize with excessive intensity activity . Nordic Walking has the great advantage of being very adaptable and then " adapted " to the various types of physical problems .

The action of toning on the shoulder due to the use of correct sticks allows you to mobilize and recover a " right " tone of the shoulder avoiding the imbalances of power between the muscles intra and extra - rotators.

Instructors of the Official School of Nordic Walking A.N.W.I. -San Marino , graduates I.S.E.F. or graduates in Sciences , focusing on teaching the proper technique and devising the right progression of early and advanced training , will allow to firmly resolve chronic shoulder problems and their recurrence in time .

The selective development of extra- totatori muscles with each step using the sticks , joined the natural movement and swinging arm give "strength" and " freedom" in the shoulder , adding to the classic advantages of Nordic Walking which burn 40 % more calories than walking , to work 90% of the muscles and fatigue but do not feel fatigue .

In neurological and motor problems Nordic Walking is a resource of great use and " marketability " among people who need to improve their motor autonomy.

Through the proper use of poles can be improved , and sometimes meet very well , to motorii deficit through personalized and selective training limb coordination and balance in walking .

Instructors of the Official School of Nordic Walking A.N.W.I. -San Marino , graduates I.S.E.F. or graduates in Sports Science , will identify the right progression of exercises to recover and maximize their potential motor , offsetting the present deficit, through new movement strategies , to return to being more independent and improve the " control " of their bodies .
