If you're an athlete, consider investing in a five-gallon bucket. For soreness of the arms (like from baseball practice) a five-gallon bucket filled with ice water will allow you to ice the whole arm at one time. This method will also work for feet or try a massage in Dubai.
Use plastic wrap to secure ice to limbs or the body. If you need to be moving around (cooking, cleaning, etc.) while using ice, plastic wrap can help secure ice onto a muscle while you move.
Apply heat.
After the first day of soreness, heat can be used to help blood flow to the muscle. This will help rebuilding take place and provide some soothing relief.
Take a shower. Allow warm water to hit the muscles, relaxing them. Alternate with warm and cool water for a homemade hydrotherapy treatment.
Stretch while taking a shower and ready for a Dubai Body to Body Massage.
Take a bath with warm water and a muscle relaxing liquid soap. Stay in the bath for around 15 - 25 minutes for best results.
Adding baking soda (bicarbonate of soda) to your bathwater is a home remedy that is very effective. Add 2-4 heaped tablespoons of soda to a full bathtub and stir a little to dissolve. Enjoy your bath. You should feel some relief immediately after you finish your bath.
For stiff neck, take uncooked rice and fill a tube sock and tie off the end. Microwave for 1.5 minutes and use as a heat wrap. It is reusable.
Plan a proper diet including keeping hydrated. If your muscles are sore from intense activities such as weightlifting, your muscles are rebuilding themselves, needing water and lots of protein. Aim to take in 1 gram of protein per day for every pound of lean body mass you have.
For example, a 160 lb. man at 20% body fat would want to take in approximately 130 grams of protein per day. This will speed up recovery times considerably, as well as prevent muscle loss from poor nutrition. Take Protein 15 to 45 minutes after workout for best results with the massage.
Drink lots of water while you work out and throughout the day. Your muscles need water to function at their peak, and your body needs water to repair your muscles. Don't forget to drink water.
Avoid soreness before it happens. Consider taking vitamins, antioxidants, and other supplements. This will help prepare your body for a more strenuous version of the exercise.
Vitamin C and antioxidants, in particular, have been effective in helping to prevent muscle soreness. Blueberries, artichokes, and green tea are antioxidant-rich, while chili peppers, guavas, and citrus fruits are all high in vitamin C.
If you're working out, ease into your workout not only by stretching, but also by warming up with a light simulation, using the targeted muscles in lighter exercise than you are planning to be performing in the following minutes.
Invest in a muscle (foam) roller. These are very useful for sore thigh and leg muscles. Press the roller into the sore muscle and rub it up and down. The action helps relieve tension and stress. For particularly cranky spots, use a rolling pin!
Tart/Sour cherry juice can also help your muscles feel better. Sour cherry juice can be found at most health food stores. Tart cherry juice provided symptom relief for patients with mild to moderate knee OA, but this effect was not significantly greater than placebo (which also gave relief) in the six weeks study for the massage in Dubai.
Ice an especially achy area first, then take a hot soaking bath. Stay in the bathtub for about 30 minutes.
Take a hot bath with a 3/4 cup of salt (preferably Epsom salts), possibly using a hot tub. Relax, and ease your mind as well.
Have a ice bath for ten minutes then have a hot one.
Take a warm bath and just rest in it for a while, after that stretch and ice the muscles.
