Chennai Doctor Offers Pickleball Heart Wellness

Pickleball's booming popularity has inspired a new initiative in Chennai aimed at enhancing player wellbeing. Recognizing the sport's intense enthusiasm, especially among those in their 40s and 50s, preventive cardiologist Dr. Priya Chockalingam has created the 'Pickle Hearts' workshop.

The two-hour session, held at the Cardiac Wellness Institute, focuses on crucial aspects beyond the game itself. Participants will learn about balanced nutrition for active adults, essential flexibility and balance exercises to prevent common pickleball-related injuries, and how the sport contributes to sustained cardiac health.
