Carlos Sainz He just posted on his social networks a message of thanks to all those behind his miraculous recovery from an emergency appendicitis operation that took place on Grand Prix of Saudi Arabia to the glory of victory at the Australian GP 16 days later.
But behind the miracle there is a dose of work well done based on the physical strength and genetics of the Madrid pilot supported by work with his physiotherapist and innovative methods of injury recovery.
In the lobby of the Melbourne podium Carlos Sainz He joked in one episode in purest ‘Carlando’ style with his good friend Lando Norris, who concluded in third, that “you should probably get your appendix out this winter because there might be a tenth in it.” But the recovery was no joke because nine days before the race and he was about to board the plane he was still recovering in bed. “I could hardly move or use my stomach muscles, and I was like, ‘this is not going to happen,’ but I flew and, suddenly, when I got to Australia, the sensations were better, the doctors had already. warned me.” explained Carlos.
Although he traveled with doubts and the first goal of passing the medical examination by the FIA doctors to participate, Carlos did not miss any detail in his recovery, from the use of hyperbaric chambers to increase the oxygen level to machine sessions.Indiba radiofrequency to speed up the healing process.
“As soon as they removed my appendix I started searching online to see what helped speed recovery.”
“I talked to other athletes, with other doctors in Spain and abroad, and then I made a plan with my team. I started going to the hyperbaric rooms twice a day in for an hour, wearing the Indiba machine, which is an electromagnetic thing for wounds”.
“I would schedule my time in bed, my time to go out for a walk, my time to eat, the type of food you have to recover. Everything is focused on recovery to be ready for Australia.” And the thing worked.
And if it can take any normal person a month to regain their physical tone, an elite athlete can reduce the period to less than two weeks as achieved by Carlos: “The reason why the recovery is faster athlete is because they can commit themselves 24 hours a day for seven days to recovery. And that’s exactly what I did.”
