Treating Muscle Soreness with Schüssler Salts

As soon as the temperatures rise, people become more active outdoors – whether walking, jogging, hiking, or mountain biking. Nature beckons, and often we forget that during the winter months physical fitness may have been neglected – and suddenly, the next day, muscle soreness appears! But it doesn’t have to be that way. Using Schüssler salts during and after activity can prevent or greatly reduce this discomfort.

We recommend dissolving Schüssler salts No. 3, 5, and 7 – 10 tablets each – in approximately 500 ml of water during exercise. The drink can be enriched with a splash of apple juice, creating a ready-to-go sports drink you can take in a bottle. By combining these Schuessler salts, you are optimally supplied and the loss of electrolytes due to sweating can be minimized.

In the evening after exercise or the next day, we recommend the combination of Schüssler salts No. 8, 9, and 10. This metabolic trio promotes the elimination of "waste substances" produced during exercise, which are often the cause of tired muscles or soreness.

For best results, dissolve 10 tablets of each salt in 500 ml of water after activity and drink it. The drink can also be consumed several times the following day.

For external use on sore muscles, we recommend Schüssler Cream No. 7, which loosens and relaxes

the muscles. This way, your athletic excursion is remembered for the experience, not the pain.
