I'm not really into ice dance anymore as a practitioner, but my partner has had some recent experience with a sports injury which meant that even walking was extremely painful.
I would say to exercise caution with private, potentially uncontrolled, 'wellness' practitioners. If you can find a reputable, trained, practitioner, with recommendations, then go ahead. Take a look at McTimoney chiropractic practitioners. In our case the NHS was just taking far too long to assess the injury and recommend something. An acquaintance, also a McTimoney chiropractic practitioner, recommended a more local chiropractic practitioner at a private sports clinic. Assessment and treatment worked well at the time, but expensive. In the meantime the local NHS small injury clinic took a look and referred it on. Suggested, unofficial, protective measure was taping up the problem joint (K-Tape). This had some effect, but problem persisted. Decided to try local university sports injury clinic - full assessment and recommended treatment for £10/session. 3 sessions did the trick. Still really waiting for the NHS. Eventually arranged a scan (about a month ago) after seeing a consultant (several months ago). Results to appear in yet another appointment in another month. Problem, however, seems to have been resolved and, given where results will be discussed, it looks as if there's nothing to follow up.
Maybe it would have healed with time anyway. Maybe the later treatment wouldn't have been as effective earlier. The chiropractic physio was not significantly different than the university sports clinic, just significantly more expensive - but hey, we all have to make a living. Nevertheless a couple of visits to A&E, local doctor, walk-in small injury clinic, consultant + a scan - and nothing helpful from the NHS except an [unofficial] idea from a sports-enthusiast doctor.
Regarding exercises you do need to 'loosen up' before and after any physical activity, such as skating or dance. Some of those exercises turn up in pilates, yoga and feldenkrais. Take your pick, noting that age and consequential wear-and-tear from sports has an impact. Pain is your body's way of telling you there's something wrong.
