Stay tuned for our next bi-monthly newsletter. Coming home after a hard days work you notice the pain in your neck and back, though you haven't been lifting anything or doing anything out of the ordinary. Years ago, you experienced a physical injury while playing tennis, but your doctor says there are no medical problems. That is when the pain starts to happen. Blood is diverted from the neck and back to vital organs preparing for battle one that never comes.
Muscles begin to spasm from lack of oxygen and pain begins to set in.
You notice the pain but don't notice the tension causing it. You've always been able to handle things, push emotions aside, be a perfectionist. It is hard to accept that the tension is causing your physical pain. Exercise to help your body use up the energy brought on by tension. When muscles begin to spasm, consult a physiotherapist to assist you.
