DIY Sports Injury Solutions Group October 20, 2009

Are you someone who likes to fix things themselves? Are you also someone who plays hard and has the occasional injury?This group will focus on do it yourself techniques to rehab yourself from injury. We'll discuss current soft tissue techniques, stretches and exercises that can be done at home, office or with a partner to help you heal fast. Some of the most common injuries we'll be talking about are: ankle, knee, wrist and shoulder sprain/strain injuries, plantar fasciitis, IT band syndrome, jumpers knee, rotator cuff tear, tennis and golfers elbow, overuse injuries, tendonitis, muscle tears, numbness and tingling. We'll also discuss if you should apply ice or apply heat to an injury, or whether to rest or keep going.

This first meet-up I would like to focus on the lower body, feet, ankle and knees. We will go through the most common injuries in the lower body and discuss stretches and exercise to help heal yourself faster. If you've ever had or have a sprained ankle or plantar fasciitis this is a good meet-up for you
