DRINK MORE WATER!!! Keep yourself hydrated. If you are lacking water so are your muscles. Your body is mostly water. You must constantly replenish it as you lose moisture throughout the day. The pain may just be your body's way of screaming for thirst!

put a few handfuls of rice in a sock. Heat the sock up in the microwave (as warm as you can stand it) and put on your ache. Works like a heating pad if you don't have one.

To cure muscle aches put more potassium in your diet by eating bananas or taking potassium caplets. Potassium is an essential mineral required for proper heart and muscle function.

As hot of water you can stand and epsom salts added until the water cools. You will feed soooo much better and take an OTC pain reliever.

An Icepack works wonders but many people dont have one at home. Well wjen my children have had aches, I lay some icecubes on a small sheet of aluminum fiol and wram it up. Then I put it in a plastic bag to avoid leakage. The aluminum foil preserves the ices coldness and makes that pain go away!

Home acupuncture product. For instance, pillows, mits, etc like the Prickley Pad. I am sure there are other's on the market, I am just familiar with this one. I have had numerous issues with my shoulder, neck, and back (I am a retired tennis coach). This type of product is very practical for those who are looking for a natural way for the body to heal by stimulating blood. It has worked wonders for me, 30 minutes a day.

Well im in gynastics so i get aches a lot. But i have come up with diffrent remedy for the bad spots in my body! My number one aches come from my wrists and ankels. So if you want to treat your wrists its easey!
So what i do for my wrists, First i wet with warm water or hot water onto a paper towel or cloth. Then i place it on my aching spot. I wait a while, but sice a have a short attenchion span i watch tv! So after the cloth/paper towel is starting to get cold, wrince the cloth/paper towel in cold water. After you place it back on your sore spot and take it off put some baby powder on your ache. Then i move my wrists in a circler motion.
So then for my ankels, I kinda do the sme thing but i find it more effective if i do that back wards. Baby powder, cold water, then warm water. I dont know im just wierd.:)
But the top sore spot for many people is thier neck! So first i wrince my neack in the shower with warm water. I place the shower hose back in forth side to side on my neck. It kinda acts like a masager. The i take a damp towel and place it over my neck. Until it drys a drink tea or orange juce.Its a little method i do!:)
Well hope it works for all of ya:)
