Group Fitness Instructor

Answer: D - The acronym RICE stands for Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation, the steps often taken after sports injury to combat the pain, swelling and potential for future harm to injured tissues. While a rapid trip to a medical professional may be indicated in some situations, not all sports injuries result in the need for a doctor. And while light exercise, such as gentle stretching and ROM exercises, is often recommended by a health care provider after sprain or strain, it is not the role of the Group Fitness Instructor to recommend such exercises immediately after injury.
