This chart shows the AVERAGE range of healing times for various tissues in the body, including different grades of tissue injury for muscles, tendons, and ligaments. It can serve not only as a guide but a reminder that we can't force our bodies to heal faster than possible.

Athletic Trainers at the secondary school level play a vital role in injury prevention, evaluation, and treatment. If your school/district is serious about the health and safety of athletes, ensure that ATs are present on the sidelines.

Greyson Stevens shined in his East Valley debut as the Red Devils stormed back from a 14-0 deficit, Nate Montes De Oca led Grandview to a win on both sides of the ball, and La Salle won behind a big day for QB Johan Valladares. https://t.co/Cv3F9p0Umn

“I’m on to the future now. I don’t even want to think about the past anymore. I’m healthy, and that’s all that matters. I went through a lot of adversity. I think that’s made me stronger. I feel like I’m able to weather storms now.” https://t.co/LjVcYlqQzC

March is National Athletic Training Month-31 days of social media blitz to advocate for this profession. We hope that parents, admin, coaches & other stakeholders take note of the work we do, the roles we play & the vital presence we have on the health & safety of our athletes!

[James Borchers, MD, MPH @DrJamesBorchers]

Athletic Trainers are essential to athlete health and safety. They cannot do it alone. They need support and resources to manage athlete healthcare appropriately. First step, do everything possible to have an Athletic Trainer available.

Ambien partially alters the normal expression of genes within the cortex of rats––genes that are otherwise fundamental to natural sleep (authors: “no drug fully replicates the molecular changes in the cortex associated with recovery sleep”). https://t.co/y7NzLNfBds

Would you let your child swim in a pool without a lifeguard? Parents/guardians does your child have access to appropriate medical care? ATHLETIC TRAINERS SAVE LIVES by providing medical care and supervision during games and practices. ASK QUESTIONS. #ASaferApproach #AT4ALL

Food is the most widely abused drug.

Exercise is the most underutilized antidepressant.

[Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. @hubermanlab]

Every 24 hours we need to re-up:
1. Sleep
2. Morning Sunlight
3. Exercise
4. Nutrients (even if from body stores)
5. Water
The fact that we can survive >24hrs without one or several of these, is irrelevant. Health flourishes when we make getting all 5 of these a daily priority.
