Cold Weather, Stiff Joints? Try These At-Home Routines

Winter is tough on your body. If your joints feel stiffer in the cold, you’re not imagining it.
Lower temperatures can tighten muscles and restrict blood flow—making everyday movements more uncomfortable.

🥶 Why Cold Affects Your Joints

  • Muscles tighten in the cold.
  • Blood flow slows down.
  • Inactivity increases stiffness.

🏡 Easy Home Care Tips

  1. Start With a Warm Shower
    It boosts circulation and loosens up muscles.
  2. Stretch Gently Every Morning
    • Neck rolls
    • Shoulder circles
    • Light forward bends
  3. Stay Active (Even Indoors!)
    Try yoga, stretching, or even walking around the house.
  4. Dress in Layers
    Keep your joints warm to avoid stiffness.
