Another way to beat the aches and pains is resorting to some form of pain relief, whether it be pain killers, gels or sprays. Although it may be a temporary solution, you can definitely feel it working within minutes, so it may be a quick fix in your time of need. I've been using both the Biofreeze Pain Relief Gel* and Biofreeze Pain Relief Roll-On* to help beat my sore neck and back pains. Resulting in long lasting, cold therapy pain relief for sore muscles, backaches, sore joints and arthritis, it's been a life saver! From the first application, it brings targeted and effective pain relief, and I could feel the cooling sensation spreading right across my back and the pain reducing within minutes. The cold relief reduces blood flow to the affected area to ease swelling and minimize damage to soft tissues. Applying Biofreeze when needed has really helped me remain focused on my work and has allowed me to forget any pain that I was suffering with.

Finally, something that can really help you through the aches and pains are simple back/ shoulder exercises and stretches to help improve mobility and posture. I like to make sure I do as much stretching as possible, and if necessary, I have been using my foam roller to target any specific areas of pain. Just by getting up and about every hour or so will help beat those aches and pains, and help to keep your muscles functioning correctly and prevent soreness. There are so many videos online and tutorials to follow to make sure you are correctly stretching your muscles out - something very important to focus on as you don't want to risk further injury.
