Pickleball is a blast β but recovery is how you play again tomorrow. π
Physical therapists recommend cooling down after you play to reduce stiffness, support tendon health, and keep you feeling good between matches.
PT Recovery Basics:
β Short cool-down walk
β Stretch calves, hamstrings, hip flexors
β Foam roll + mobility work
β Stretch forearms & shoulders (grip + swing work!)
β Gentle next-day movement
If soreness sticks around >72 hours or impacts daily life, a physical therapist can help you stay active safely.
