DM #91: The human body is remarkable in its healing capabilities. While there is definitely a time and a place for special treatments and custom exercise programs, sometimes the best response to injury is rest.
While I firmly believe that you can't rest your way back to full functionality, there are times when, as difficult as it may be, you just need to leave that area alone.
When an area is injured, we often can't comprehend what's going on because there may be no visible trauma. But, liken this to an external wound and we quickly see how sometimes leaving the area alone can be the best treatment of all.
So, if you've tried everything under the sun and you're still hurting, or conversely if you're still going 100 miles an hour despite pain and dysfunction, hoping that things will magically improve, consider giving yourself a little rest. It won't kill ya. I promise.
