I cannot stress the importance of stretching before and after a workout. It is by far one of the best pain preventative moves you can take. Not only for those who are not very active, but even I never skip stretching in a workout. In fact, some of my worst pain I have had was from before I realized this myself. I would ache so bad and figured it was just because I have not exercised the way I had started out. I would wake up so sore and skip a workout.Sometimes it would take me days to get rid of the pain and having to take OTC pain relievers for comfort. I cannot remember the last time I took oral pain meds because of a workout due to stretching and topical treatments. It was told to me by a trainer at one point that working out through the soreness (so long as your pain isn’t from damage done) and stretching is the best way to prevent further pain. He was right! I would be sore, workout anyway and feel a bit better!
We have oral supplements and medications for everything. The answer to all illnesses, discomforts and symptoms is pills and more pills! So now you have a hard workout and your body aches and you don’t need more pills! Salonpas is effective and topical!The Salonpas Pain Relieving Hot Gel-Patch lasts up to 8 hours and is great for shoulder, upper back and lower back pain. The cloth is breathable and easy ton apply by yourself.The Salonpas Pain Relief Patch with Menthol is a very soothing patch and one of my favorite for sore muscles, sprains, back and joint aches. It lasts 8-12 hours and is easy to apply.
The Salonpas Jet Spray is great to keep in the gym bag. A quick spray onto areas of strains, bruises, sprains, simple backaches and even arthritis offers fast and soothing relief. I use it at night when my knee pain acts up. Just spray on and head to bed for pain-free rest.
The Salonpas Deep Relieving Gel is non-greasy and is also great to rub onto backaches, stiff neck, joint pain and sore muscles. You get up to 8 hours of relief from the gel.
Sorry I missed this – I love Salonpas. Great giveaway!
