In the same dynamic movement, it enables the general tonicity of the muscular chains to be reinforced, it lets you breathe better, release the stress and the muscular tension that have built up in your body, improve to a significant degree your general equilibrium and acquire exceptional comfort while walking thanks to the use of "Nordic sticks" and from being in contact with nature.
