5 Common Causes of Muscle Tension and How Remedial Massage Can Help


Muscle tension is a common problem that affects many people, regardless of their age, gender, or fitness level. While it is usually not a serious health issue, it can cause discomfort, pain, and even affect your daily activities. Here are five common causes of muscle tension and how remedial massage can help:


Poor posture: Sitting or standing in a poor posture for long periods can put extra pressure on your muscles, causing them to tighten and become tense. Remedial massage can help to release the tension and restore your natural posture.


Stress: When you are stressed, your body produces hormones that can cause your muscles to tense up. Remedial massage can help to reduce stress and tension, promoting relaxation and improving your overall wellbeing.


Injuries: Sports injuries, accidents, and repetitive strain injuries can all cause muscle tension. Remedial massage can help to speed up the healing process, reduce pain and inflammation, and restore your range of motion.


Lifestyle factors: Poor diet, lack of exercise, and unhealthy habits like smoking can all contribute to muscle tension. Remedial massage can help to improve circulation, release toxins from your body, and promote overall health and wellness.


Aging: As we age, our muscles become less flexible and more prone to tension. Remedial massage can help to improve circulation, relieve pain and stiffness, and enhance mobility and flexibility.


Are any of these causes potentially effecting you? Remedial massage is an effective treatment for muscle tension caused by a wide range of factors. If you're experiencing muscle tension, consider booking a massage treatment with me to experience the benefits for yourself.
