      To relieve back pain, a warm compress can be placed just above the painful region, letting it act for 20 minutes. Here's how to make a homemade compress for muscle pain.

      1. Apply ice
      The best way to relieve an acute muscle pain is by using ice, which has an analgesic effect, helps reduce swelling and lengthen muscles. The ice should be applied by wrapping it in a compress, so as not to injure or burn the skin, for 15 to 20 minutes. Learn more about when and how to properly use ice to relieve muscle pain.

      2. Alternate cold with heat
      In the first 48 hours after injury, it is recommended to apply an ice pack for 20 minutes, 3 to 4 times a day, but after that, you should alternate with the application of hot compresses, as shown in the following video:

      3. Put compresses of hot salt
      An excellent home remedy for muscle pain is the warm salt compress as it helps decrease pain and stimulates circulation, speeding up the muscle recovery process.

      Ingredients

      500 g of salt;
      Stockings of thick fabric.
      How to prepare: heat the salt in a skillet for approximately 4 minutes and put in a clean sock, thick fabric, so that it is soft. Then apply the compress on the sore muscle and let it act for 30 minutes, twice a day.
      4. Massage with essential oils
      Regular massages with essential oils help reduce muscle soreness. The essential oils of Rosemary and Peppermint stimulate circulation, and the essential oil of St. John's Wort has analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties.

      Ingredients

      15 drops of Rosemary essential oil;
      5 drops Peppermint essential oil;
      5 drops of essential oil of St. John's Wort;
      1 tablespoon almond oil.
      How to prepare: mix the oils in a dark glass jar. Shake well and massage the muscle with a little of the mixture, every day until better. Find out more benefits that massage has for health.

      5. Rest and stretch
      After a muscle injury, it is very important to let the affected region rest.

      However, when the initial severe pain and swelling become smaller, the affected area should be lengthened, gently, by moving it to avoid progressive stiffness. Stretching helps to stimulate circulation and prevents scarring. See which stretching exercises are ideal for back pain.

      7. Pass arnica on the skin
      Arnica is a plant that helps control swelling, bruising and inflammation and decreases bruising due to its analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. It can be used in cream, oil or even in compresses that can be prepared as follows:

      Ingredients

      1 teaspoon of arnica flowers;
      1 cup boiling water.
      How to prepare: add the arnica flowers in a cup with boiling water and let stand for 10 minutes. Then strain and dip the compress into the tea and then apply to the affected region.

      9. Bath with Epsom salts
      Epsom salt is a mineral compound that can be used to relieve muscle pain as it is responsible for regulating magnesium levels in the body and thus lead to increased production of serotonin, which is a hormone that helps relax and to calm down.

      To make the bath with Epsom salts just fill a bath with warm water and put 250 grams of salts and then do a soak for about 20 minutes, there being muscle relaxation.
