First and foremost, drag yourself out of bed and do a bit of hydrotherapy. Start by warming yourself up with a hot shower, then turn it waaaaay down to cold. The transition from hot to cold will increase circulation and help to eliminate toxins from the night before. You can do a few rounds of this, but end on cold water. The cold causes blood vessels to constrict, which reduces inflammation and pain. Its also very invigorating, and will wake you up for sure.
