A New Reference Tool for Optimized Healing

Introducing the BE CALM Protocol Poster

Ten years ago, Biochemist Rebecca Dietzel and I co-founded the revolutionary BE CALM Protocol for injury first aid. This protocol replaces the traditional (and problematic) RICE protocol, which its founder publicly abandoned in 2014 but people continue to use.

To empower everyone, we created a free, user-friendly reference poster for all to use in the case of injury.

The initial 48 hours post-injury are pivotal, laying the foundation for the healing process. Knowing how to act during this period is crucial. The BE CALM protocol ensures you work in harmony with the healing process rather than over-using ice, pushing through the pain, or moving too little, any of which counteract it. It also helps you sort through if you may be dealing with a bone fracture and what BE CALM actions would apply in that case. 

Right after an injury, your body dispatches cells and chemicals to the affected area via your bloodstream in a process known as inflammation. Our actions can obstruct their intended beneficial arrival or partner with their assistance.

We invite you to play an active role in your body’s healing process using the BE CALM Protocol.

Yours in efficient and optimized injury healing,
