Immediately after a soft tissue injury, let PEACE guide you ✌️

When protecting your joint for 1-3 days, this doesn't mean you don't move at all but be more gentle with your body. Remember, if you don't move much, you can start to lose muscle tone and strength
.
Elevating your joint helps to promote fluid flow and healing

Avoid Anti-inflammatories as they can affect long-term tissue healing
.
Compress with taping to help limit haemorrhage

Understanding your injury is vital with healing. Speak with your healthcare practitioner to guide you best

Cosy candle lit evenings, salt baths, and movement are at the top of my list

For anyone who has a period 🩸it's true that there are times during your cycle when you are more prone to injury
.
Research largely points to the late follicular phase ( around day 10 of a 28-day cycle) and ovulation (around day 14) as the riskiest times
.
This is because the high oestrogen levels during these phases make your ligaments lax
.
This laxness compromises joint stability, which can lead to straining ankles or twisting knees
.
This can be beneficial to some who find that the drop in progesterone and increase in oestrogen during these phases frees up the joints so they can move faster and the best time to perform
.
These phases are also when most of us have higher energy 💪🔥🏃‍♀️
.
My tip is to work on your mobility for joint support so you can make the most of this high energy without getting injured
.
Also, it is important to track your cycle on an app to report on your training, injury, energy levels, and symptoms
.
Have you noticed you are likely to strain/sprain joints during certain times of your cycle? Next time this happens, it may be a good idea to check where in your cycle you are
.
Comment below if you notice your joints feel looser at different phases of your cycle 👇
