Crossfit injuries

[speaker2]

I recently slipped a disc in my back doing crossfit. It clearly sucks but I want to get a good idea of how I can recover from it and atleast take the steps to feeling better. Any help?

Rehab. Have you seen a doctor?

crossfit injuries are quite common because it is too much over training and peer pressure. plus it is volume training within a set time which puts tremendous pressure on the body.

i would recommend 2 things. get an inversion table + do hot yoga.

the worst thing you can do is keep hammering away or getting a cortisol shot. also chiropractors and massage therapists might mean well, but they will actually cause more damage by playing around with your injury

If your spine is out of place - you are going to need physical adjustments to get it put back into place.

I suggest booking an appointment with a good chiropractor, getting x-rays done and doing whatever treatment plan he suggests

Follow what the doctor says

Go and see a chiropractor and listen to what he tells you!
