Spreading the Holiday Cheer

Sprains & Strains
Sprains and strains refer to painful stretching or tearing of tissues between bones and muscles, but these injuries are typically not serious and can be treated with a little RICE (more on that in a minute) and lots of TLC. We are especially prone to sprains and strains in the winter time when involved in activities like skating, skiing or snowboarding for the first time in a long time and doing so without adequately warming up our muscles.
Check out this month’s Quick Reference Guide all about treating sprains and strains.
Be calm, be confident and think common sense!
