Hi, and welcome! The teas should be just as effective in terms of medicinal properties no matter what temp you drink them at. Heat in and of itself is a muscle relaxant, so hot teas can help in that way. And ice cold drinks can make your muscles contract, which can trigger problems.

So...brew the herbs with boiling hot water (they won't brew effectively in warm or cold water), but then let the tea cool to room temp before you drink it.
