Things You'll Need:
- Sock
- Rice
- Microwave
- Ribbon (optional)
-
Step 1
Take a sock that doesn’t have any holes in it made out of a soft fabric. Make sure your sock has a long leg portion and isn’t the type of sock that ends at the ankle.
-
Step 2
Put rice into the sock. Depending on the size of the sock, you’ll need about a cup of rice. Avoid using minute rice or it may cook in the microwave.
-
Step 3
Sew the sock closed. If you’re not handy with a needle, you can also tie the sock off. Make sure the knot is tight and none of the rice can escape.
-
Step 4
Put the sock into the microwave for a minute or two until it’s warm to the touch.
-
Step 5
Press the hot sock against the muscles in your arms, legs, feet or back to loosen them.
-
Step 6
Tie the sock against a sore muscle with a ribbon or another piece of fabric if you want to.
