RICE Is Out Rethinking Injury Recovery | Anchorage News

Forget RICE—new science says it might be slowing your recovery. Inflammation isn’t the enemy; it’s your body’s natural healing signal. Icing and anti-inflammatories can shut down repair cells, while over-rest leads to muscle loss. Experts now push gentle, early movement to kickstart healing and prevent scarring. Try alphabet tracing or wall pushes. New guidelines—PEACE and LOVE—emphasize protecting, elevating, avoiding ice, loading gently, and staying optimistic. Move early, move smart, and heal faster.
