Before reaching for your Advil or Aleve, consider if your pain could be alleviated with better flexibility and mobility. Aches and pains in one part of your body could be caused by tightness or out-of-alignment in a different body part. While most people regard–or are in the process of incorporating–exercise as an important part of their lifestyle, it’s not uncommon for people to quickly complete or skip over stretching as part of their routine. Although it may seem insignificant, taking some time every day to stretch and work on muscle and joint stiffness could greatly help pain if you have it, while making you feel better overall.
