Why Rest Won't Fix Your Injury

Why Rest Won't Fix Your Injury

September 20, 2025

One of the most misunderstood pieces of injury in rehab, is that when something happens, you want to just rest and that time will allow that thing to heal or time will allow that thing to pass.

While time certainly helps the actual physical tissue in and of itself get better, what we want to do is actually attack that, actively and put yourself in a position where you no longer have fear, you no longer worry about that thing, right?

So the actual physical tissue is one aspect of it. But the second aspect of that is you actually using that as it heals and as it repairs, so that you then have trust in that thing going forward.
