You got injured and it hurts, it's time to fix it. It happens to everyone, whether you're active or not, while cleaning the house or doing your exercise routine, injuries don't discriminate based on physical condition, so no one is exempt from them.
Injuries are unpredictable, sudden, and violent. In general, it only takes more attention to the environment or to our own body to avoid them. An injury can occur for multiple causes, and at the same time, generate multiple effects. A fall, for example, can cause a sprain, dislocation, or fracture, it's just that we don't usually think about it. Similarly, we have the bad habit of being prone to traffic accidents, which in the best case ends with a neck strain (lucky are those who can say so). As mentioned earlier, no one is immune to an injury, much less an athlete who lives with the constant risk of muscle injuries such as dislocations, tears, tendonitis, among others.
Once injured, there's only one path to follow: rehabilitation. There are many methods, but today we will talk about physical therapy.
In simple terms, we can say that physical therapy is a non-pharmacological treatment used to diagnose, treat, and prevent multiple ailments, whether acute or chronic (it is important to highlight that its definition indicates something crucial: "non-pharmacological" meaning non-invasive). It focuses on the proper development of the body's systems, especially the musculoskeletal system, using scientifically proven techniques. There are several types of physical therapy: using electricity, laser, ultrasound, heat, cold, water, and manual techniques. A trusted traumatologist will know better than anyone which method is best and, combined with proper rest, there's nothing to worry about.
However, we will focus on manual techniques.
Now that we know a bit more about injuries and one of their possible treatments, physical therapy, let's talk about the elastic band as a support in rehabilitation. Its use is especially useful for muscle development and mobility of the affected limb or part of the body, relieving pain and muscle overloads by limiting or complementing ranges of movement, so you don't necessarily need to be injured to use them.
Some advantages of elastic bands are their low cost, ease of use in different body areas, and their versatility when used, as they are a perfect complement for various types of physical training.
Now that we know a bit about elastic bands, which one should we use?
It depends, of course, on the injury or the use we want to give it. However, here are some good options.
