It’s not uncommon to feel some soreness after a chiropractic adjustment, especially if your body is adjusting to new alignment. This is normal and usually goes away after a short time. Here’s how you can support your body’s healing process:
- Rest and Relax: Give your body time to adjust by avoiding heavy physical activities for a day or two.
- Hydrate: Drinking plenty of water helps flush out toxins and keeps your muscles and joints hydrated.
- Gentle Movements: Light stretching or walking can improve circulation and prevent stiffness.
- Cold or Heat Compresses: A cold pack can reduce inflammation, and heat therapy can help soothe tight muscles.
