After the Choirs: Take care of yourself the way you deserve it

The Barceloneta Choirs are an explosion of color, music, and joy. But after all that partying, our bodies often need a little taking-care-of. Here we explain how to recover from the three most common after-effects… and how some local products can help you get back to 100%.

 

1.Hangover: The Price of a Good Atmosphere

After three days of dancing and toasting, a hangover can set in with headaches, nausea, dehydration, and even sadness or anxiety . To combat it:

  • Intensive hydration: Isotonic drinks or coconut water help restore minerals. We have them in both prepared and sachet form at the pharmacy.
  • Natural supplementation: B vitamins and milk thistle extracts can help the liver recover.
  • Soothing infusions: Chamomile or ginger for the stomach.

 

2.Low spirits: When silence weighs on you

After days of euphoria, it’s normal to feel a little sad. The brain has been in party mode and now needs to stabilize.

  • Natural light and walks by the sea: They activate serotonin. We take advantage of the fact that we’re in the city’s seaside neighborhood to go for a walk and enjoy the good weather.
  • Tryptophan or magnesium supplement: Helps regulate mood.
  • Time for yourself: A good book, some yoga, or a conversation with friends can work wonders.

In Barceloneta, we have the best remedy: the sun, the sand, and the community.


3. Blisters and injuries: feet that crave peace

Dancing for hours on end can have its consequences: blisters, muscle strain, and even minor sprains.

  • Foot care: Special blister dressings and arnica creams. Prepare before the party, and if you haven’t been able to, get a remedy at your local pharmacy.
  • Massage and relaxation: Salt foot baths and a little elevation. The anti-inflammatory creams we offer can help with leg pain after your return.

Remember: celebrating is living, but taking care of yourself is loving yourself. After the choirs, give yourself a little peace of mind… and get ready for the next party!
