If you have been in an accident or experienced a sickness that caused issues with your mobility, then physical therapy (such as is done by professionals like those from Cherry Creek Wellness Center, Inc.) is often used as a solution. Physical therapy involves performing a series of exercises that are designed to remediate and rehabilitate any issues with your body. This process can often take months and years to complete. In addition, it leaves your body feeling sore since your muscles and joints are not used to performing the movements and exercises. If the soreness is not kept under control, it can quickly become painful. Luckily, there are herbal teas that you can use following physical therapy sessions in order to alleviate any soreness. 

White Willow Bark Tea

White willow bark has long been used to treat pain caused by headaches and migraines. The herb contains salicin, which is a component that is commonly found in aspirin. As a result, the herb can be turned into a tea in order to alleviate muscle soreness and pain throughout your body. In order to create the tea, chop a large piece of white willow bark into smaller pieces. The bark should be placed into a pot of hot water and allow the bark to steep for hours before straining. You can add other herbs like peppermint and ginger in order to improve the taste of the white willow bark. The bark works best if it is consumed several times throughout the day.

Rosemary Tea

Rosemary is one of many herbs that is considered to be a natural analgesic. This is a herb that offers pain relief for headaches and menstrual cramps. The herb is also used to soothe inflammation during times of sickness. Rosemary tea works best when using fresh rosemary. The herb is fairly common therefore it can be found at your local grocery store. Add a handful of the fresh herb to a pot of water. Allow the mixture to boil and remove the pot from the stove. Strain the fresh rosemary from the mixture and add lemon for taste. Rosemary tea should be consumed immediately following a physical therapy session. After a few cups of the tea, you will begin to notice a difference in the soreness and pain.

The pain caused by muscle soreness can be debilitating if it Is not dealt with immediately. Therefore, use these herbal teas to help alleviate any soreness you may be feeling following a physical therapy session.
