Question: What's your dancer-remedy for sore muscles!?
Mine is bananas!. The potassium loosens and numbs the muscles like oil on a machine!. You guys!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Hot bath with epsom salts, drink plenty of water, arnica oil, sometimes bananas (if I have 'em handy), a good night's sleep!.

also gentle stretching/movements!.!.!. nothing vigorous, just to gently increase circulation to help muscles repair & rid themselves of metabolic waste!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Aleve and heat for muscle pain - ice for joint pain!. Just a note!.!.!. physiologically, potassium does nothing for muscles except help transmit nerve impulses - so I suspect any benefit you claim from potassium is from the placebo effect - BUT if it works for you thats a good thing!. Muscles are actually activated by the flow of calcium ions, so keeping up your diet with enough calcium is very important!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Some daily stretching, and icyhot packs help a lot, especially with pulled muscles too!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

lots and lots of water to replenish the muscle and stretch to loosen them back up!. sometimes i took a hot bath, but its only a temporary relief:(Www@QuestionHome@Com
