Homeopathy is a gentler and body-friendly way of healing. It uses components of plant, animal, mineral and even chemical origin (sulfur, mercury, etc.). The idea? Provoke a defense reaction in the body and increase its self-healing capacities. Homeopathy is ideal for athletes because it is better assimilated than drugs, relieves very quickly and does not affect performance. Here are the 5 sports essentials to prevent (or treat) small daily injuries.
When you are athletic, you can easily suffer a shock followed by a hematoma or even have some aches when waking up the next day. The solution ? 3 granules of Arnica 9 CH twice a day, and stop taking as soon as the pain stops. You can adapt the dosage according to the symptoms, for this, the ideal is to inquire with your pharmacist.
Here comes the arrival of low temperatures:to treat cold cramps or muscle spasms, you can take 5 granules of Cuprum Metallicum 7 CH before going to bed.
It is not uncommon to catch a cold after a good sports session where you have sweated. In prevention or to relieve the symptoms (diarrhoea, vomiting) if one has been had, one takes 5 granules, three times a day. If you have severe pain or fever, you prefer Dulcamara 7 CH, to be taken 3 times a day.
Sarcolacticum Acidum is the ally against aches, well known to athletes! Swallow 5 granules as soon as the sports session is over... and if the pain increases in intensity, it can be combined with Arnica Montana 9 CH.
Dehydration occurs quickly during an effort if you do not drink enough (before, after and during the session). It causes fatigue and headaches. To fight against this, we take 3 granules as a preventive measure during our training.
Without a prescription, you can find all these granules in pharmacies or on the Boiron website. . Do not hesitate to discuss it with your pharmacist. What do we like? The price of a tube does not often exceed 2 €.
