Did you know injury care guidelines are changing?
For years, we were told to follow RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation). But many clinicians now recommend MEAT:
M – Movement
E – Exercise
A – Analgesics
T – Treatment
Research now shows that gentle movement and circulation help the body heal more effectively than prolonged rest.
Interestingly, this aligns beautifully with what acupuncture has supported for thousands of years:
✨ improving circulation
✨ reducing pain naturally
✨ helping the body recover and move again
Healing works best when we support the body, not suppress it. Make your appointment today and let us support your recovery!
