Thanks to the delightful amount of rain in Les Gets in the last few days, I took a tumble down a set of very slippy marble steps last Wednesday landing on my ass with the impact going through my spine. After visiting the local 'medicins de montage' and a ambulance trip to the provinical hospital, I was told that I had a small compression fracture in the seventh vertebrae of the thoracic vertebrae. I have to take three months off the bike and any other sports for it to heal properly.

Can I take any supplements, adjust my diet, or do any stretching or light exercise to promote healing or speed up healing time?

Sorry to hear that news, you only get one back and it has to last a long time, my recommendation is to do what the medics advise! Take care :)
