In honor of National Physical Therapy Month, Dr. Brown and Dr. Bay are talking about 7 things we feel pretty strongly about as Sports PTs! You've heard it all before: ice it, rest it, stretch it, tape it, or just wait until the pain goes away. But is that advice actually helping you recover? In this episode of the PTSP Podcast, we're separating fact from fiction and breaking down 7 common injury and rehab myths that could be keeping you from making a full recovery. Hill #1: Rest Is Not Always the Answer. Hill #2: Ice Is Not a Magic Healing Tool. Hill #3: An MRI Finding Doesn't Automatically Mean You Need Surgery. Hill #4: Not Every Tight Muscle Needs to Be Stretched. Hill #5: Pain-Free Does NOT Mean Game-Ready. Hill #6: Braces and Tape Are Not Substitutes for Rehabilitation. Hill #7: Physical Therapy Is More Than a Sheet of Exercises. Whether you're an athlete, parent, coach, or just someone trying to get back to doing what you love, this episode will help you better understand what your body actually needs to recover. At PTSP, we believe recovery is about more than getting rid of pain. It's about addressing the problem, progressively preparing your body for what you want to do, and helping you return stronger and more confident. 📍 Physical Therapy San Pedro 🌐 physicaltherapysanpedro.com 📱 IG/FB: @physicaltherapysanpedro #PhysicalTherapyMonth #SportsPT #SportsPhysicalTherapy #ReturnToSport #ChoosePT #PTSP
