Lactic acid is secreted by the muscles after intense exertion. From this acid is derived the homeopathic remedy Sarcolacticum acidum, which is used in traumatology. Sarcolacticum acidum is recommended for the treatment of muscle weakness, myocardial weakness, and spinal neurasthenia.
The main indications of the remedy
Muscle fatigue is a broad term, referring to several signs of weakness generated by excessive physical activity. The remedy Sarcolacticum acidum is prescribed in order to avoid this kind of fatigue which causes, among other things, muscle pain, aches and cramps after training. Sarcolacticum acidum fights against the secretion of lactic acid which hinders muscle development and reduces the recovery phase, which can be harmful to the muscles.
The homeopathic remedy in question is recommended in case of sprains, strains, tendonitis and general physical fatigue. Muscles are also Sarcolacticum's favorite field, knowing that it treats rheumatism, the spasms and the jolts they undergo.
Muscle
contractures and cramps are not always caused by sustained muscular effort. The age and natural predisposition of each individual can also influence their appearance. As such, the elderly and pregnant women can be victims but also have the possibility of treating themselves with Sarcolacticum acidum. However, athletes are the most frequently treated subjects with Sarcolacticum Acidum. After an exhausting workout, they are advised to take 5 granules of the 5CH remedy three times a day.
Painful muscle contractures are often due to excessive lactic acid production. To remedy this gently, it is recommended to take Sarcolacticum acidum in 5CH at a rate of 5 granules per dose every hour. If the contracture increases in intensity with the movements, it is preferable to combine Sarcolacticum acidum 9CH with a local application of Arnica Montana 9CH. This combined treatment makes it possible to anticipate the appearance of aches or cramps.
