How To Stop A Charley Horse ~ How To Stop A Charlie Horse

I don't know if it Charley or Charlie, but I do know they hurt like heck.   Mine usually happen when I first wake up and stretch in the morning.

This is a picture of my feet in normal position

To stop a Charlie ( Charley ) Horse

To stop a Charley Horse, Point your toes up to the ceiling and try to point them towards your nose.   This will usually stop my charlie horse in it's tracks.

Now that I have stopped my Charley Horse, I need to make sure I don't stretch with my feet pointing down.....  I always try to stretch with my toes pointing up.


Everytime I get a charlie horse, I know it is probably because I am low on potassium, so when I get up, I always take a potassium supplement after a charley horse.

Eating bananas can help also, but if you are on the candida diet, you might not be eating bananas.

Another thing!!  You might want to find out why you are low on potassium.   I am low because of Candida And Parasites.   Both of them suck the vitamins and minerals right out of my system.

Keena,
I don't usually get a lot of charlie horses, however, I have been doing some cleansing and when I do the cleanses, I don't always take my vitamins.

Thanks for stopping by.

I do get Charlie Horses upon occasion so I'll have to remember this technique to see if it works for me.
