Pickleball is a blast — but recovery is how you play again tomorrow. 😉

Physical therapists recommend cooling down after you play to reduce stiffness, support tendon health, and keep you feeling good between matches. 

PT Recovery Basics: 
✔ Short cool-down walk 
✔ Stretch calves, hamstrings, hip flexors 
✔ Foam roll + mobility work 
✔ Stretch forearms & shoulders (grip + swing work!) 
✔ Gentle next-day movement 

If soreness sticks around >72 hours or impacts daily life, a physical therapist can help you stay active safely.
