Muscle Soreness & Ways to Relieve It - Ask Doctor Jo

DOMS is completely normal, and it’s how we build stronger muscles. There are some things you can do to help makes sure the muscles heal properly and don’t cause problems later.

One great way to relieve sore muscles is using massage with vibration. The folks at Massage Therapy Concepts sent me their Cordless Handheld Massager. It has 7 different attachments to make it very versatile, and its long handle makes it easy to reach those hard-to-reach spots on your shoulders and back.

Once you use the massage to relax the muscles, you always want to stretch afterwards to help lengthen the muscles. Also, drinking plenty of water and getting plenty rest after your workouts will help decrease DOMS.

So I'm 10 years old and i kept excersing my whole life yes I was born very weak but now these days my muscles started hurting a lot and it kept going on so I stopped excersing for a while now and started eating salad, meat, fruits and vegetables and that helped me a lot and always remember to drink water and love yourself 💜🤩
