Treating and preventing leg pains

Endurance training should be done on soft ground since constant running on hard roads and pavements jars the leg joints and bones and may lead to stress fractures. It is of course easier to run on firm ground so try this sort of running for shorter quality workouts. Try resting your bones and joints by doing endurance work on a bike or a rowing machine.

Some other treatments and rehabilitation methods include:

• Rest and NSAIDs
• Warm baths may assist
• TECAR Therapy
• K-Laser Therapy
• Shockwave Therapy
• Auricular Acupuncture
• Pulsed Shortwave Diathermy

• Electrotherapy & Ultrasound Therapy
• Deep Tissue Massage
• Ice Massage
• Heat Therapy
• Contrast Bathing
• Cortisone Injection
