Massage Therapy for Ankle Sprains: Advice for Runners


Massage Therapy for Ankle Sprains: Advice for Runners

Massage Therapy for Ankle Sprains: what to do from the moment you get injured…

Massage therapy for ankle sprains wasn’t my intended topic this week. Then I took a bad fall in a parkour class trying to jump a 12 foot gap. (I made it 11′ 9″). I’ve now got about 6-8 weeks of healing, before exercising again in any weight-bearing or high impact capacity. And definitely won’t be doing the NYC Marathon this year. Based on my own professional assessment, anyway.

It’s also timely and useful for those of you currently training for the NYC Marathon or the Ironman Triathlon to know a bit more about treating ankle sprains.

Update August 2020: Sadly, there will not be an NYC Marathon this year due to COVID-19! Our advice is to take training slowly and use the break this gives as a way to avoid injury next year ðŸ™‚

I know that there is a lot of info out there about what to do and what not to do. And mub ch of this info is confusing and conflicting. So I’m going to walk you through what to do based on the most recent science. And show you when to add in massage therapy for ankle sprains. Using my own injury as an example.
