Erste Hilfe bei Sportverletzungen: FIT statt PECH (German Edition) (EPUB)

Book Title

By Henk J.M. Brils, Jens Brils

This reference book provides all essential information for initial treatment of injuries to muscles, tendons, and ligaments in sports, leisure, training, and physiotherapy. The familiar PECH rule in first aid recommends rest, ice, compression, and elevation of injured tissue. The FIT rule (Function – Information – Therapy), on the other hand, supports and utilizes the physiological healing processes of the body instead of suppressing them. The authors compare the two approaches and explain why we can trust our body’s physiological reactions and how the FIT rule helps us recover more quickly. They answer questions such as: What is orthodynamics, and what is its impact on the healing process? Why does heat promote healing? What measures support cell health?
