Stiffness and Muscular Spasms in Burlington
Feeling stiff or dealing with sudden muscle spasms can disrupt more than just your comfort; it can throw off your whole day. Whether it’s a tight back that won’t relax or a muscle cramp that catches you off guard, these issues may keep you from enjoying the things you love. Our team understands how disruptive stiffness and spasms can be, and we’re here to help you move with greater ease again.
What Causes Stiffness And Muscular Spasms?
Stiffness occurs when muscles lose their flexibility and don’t move as freely as they should. You may feel tight, achy, or restricted, especially after sitting for long periods or first thing in the morning. A muscular spasm is a sudden, involuntary contraction of a muscle. It can feel like a minor twitch or a painful cramp that stops you in your tracks.
Why Do They Happen?
There are many reasons muscles tighten or spasm, including poor posture, sitting for extended periods, injury, overuse, or sudden movements; stress and tension that build up in the muscles; dehydration or a lack of key minerals; and spinal misalignments or nerve irritation.
How Chiropractic Care May Help
Rather than masking discomfort, chiropractic care addresses the underlying cause of it. Our chiropractors use gentle, focused adjustments and muscle therapies to restore balance to your spine and nervous system. This process may relieve tension, improve circulation, and encourage long-term relief.
