The 3 biggest mistakes runners make when recovering from injury:
�1️⃣ Rest & test- resting until it feels better, then jumping right back into running like nothing changed�2️⃣ The kitchen sink- throwing every treatment at it (creams, cupping, needling, massage, braces) and hoping something works�3️⃣ The Amazon Prime mentality- thinking your body can heal overnight or on a rushed timeline
If this sounds familiar, it’s time to stop guessing and start addressing the root of the problem. Proper rehab isn’t about quick fixes, it’s about smart progressions that get you back to running safely and confidently.
If you’re injured or stuck in the injury cycle, working with a physical therapist can make all the difference.
