Eight to fifteen minutes a day of stretching with the flex bands are recommended but even a few quick minutes a day can get the blood flowing.

ICE and "Rest is for
the deceased" (Dick Hartzell)
The sooner you start stretching,
distracting and moving the injured joint the quicker the recovery.
It is not a complicated process, it is common sense. I like the K.I.S.S.
method. (Keep It Simple Stupid) If ice is good for a sprain or strain,
why isn't good for arthritis? If you have arthritis you are told
to keep the joints moving and moist, warm compress, etc. Does ice really
reduce swelling or does it just shrink it?
There is a difference. You put ice on a bloody nose for what
purpose? To STOP the blood from flowing. Why would you want
to stop or slow the oxygen rich blood from getting to a sprain or a
strain? Ice is good for keeping your drinks or beer cold and to
lower your body temperature if you are suffering from heat stroke or
exhaustion.
You will be amazed at how simple the
whole process is and the sooner you learn how to do it the better.
There are a number of health care practitioners and physical therapists
that use the bands for first aid and therapy.

Traction (stretch) the sprained joint with Flex Bands as soon as possible after the injury. Do not immobilize and do not apply ice. 1000's of ankles have been treated using the Flex Bands traction method. The injured is up and walking (usually) with in an hour with out the aid of crutches and with no discomfort and ready to return to their activities.
