Ankle sprains! They seem so innocuous sometimes, but can cause long-lasting problems if not treated appropriately. Even if the swelling and pain isn’t bad, altered motor control and compensatory patterns can occur that don’t return to normal even long after the bruising has disappeared and you’ve regained full range of motion. Really, it’s not something you want to leave untreated only to have it cause more problems later. Lucky for you – you know me – and we can do so much more than ice (side note, please please please stop icing everything) and not only decrease pain and swelling, but help get back your range of motion, stability and motor control. And as it happens ankle sprains are one of my very favorite things to treat! This is because acupuncture works SO WELL – for both acute and chronic ankle sprains.
