RE: Movement As Medicine, Movement As First Aid

I think that coaches and doctors are taught to think "I made it" and not to see medicine as an evolving field. It might be a good post to research and explain not only why we now longer ice injuries, but how and why it SLOWS healing. It DOES reduce pain and make things numb and visibly prettier. but the clinical studies do not bear it out an a good idea any longer.

Thanks for the tipu. !ENGAGE 15

It would be so much easier if we could just it all and that's it! Medical is an area where we really struggle we with accepting that there's always new information coming in which contradicts what we previously knew, yet we're also very aware that we need to be continually updating to include that new information. Perhaps it's the discomfort in realising that as a healer you've been doing the wrong thing all this time, which is fighting the acceptance that its bound to happen as we continue to discover new things.
