Today, many people know that almost any emotional experience, stress, psychological problem, crisis in a relationship, or loss of a job is reflected in the body and creates muscle blocks and clamps. Experts say that during times of greatest tension in society, the number of visits to clinics and hospitals increases significantly, which means the body reacts to what is happening in a person's soul.
The onset of muscle clamping creates very unpleasant and sometimes painful sensations in the body, followed by constant pain, which is difficult to get rid of. At the first symptoms of muscle clamping, a person instinctively begins to massage or stretch the area where the block has arisen and pain has appeared. Some immediately turn to specialists for help or use proven remedies more than once in the form of ointments, creams or pain pills. But temporary relief does not mean that the problem has disappeared, and in order to get rid of the clamps permanently, it is important to know what the real reason for them is.
Some Causes of Muscle Clamps and Blocks in the Body
A person's consciousness can completely forget about a situation that happened in a person's life some time ago. But on an unconscious level, the traumatic event remained. It doesn't matter if it was psychological or physical trauma. The muscle block is created under the influence of both one and the other trauma in the same way. In fact, the muscles keep the "memory" of the trauma in the body in order to draw the person's attention to the fact that the problem remains and needs to be addressed.
If in a person's life there are many unresolved issues and problems, then the body will periodically remind him of those fears that are present in the unconscious. Experiencing constant fear of bosses or in communication with someone from friends, close relatives, the body will begin to create muscle clamps in the area where this fear is present. You may experience pain in the legs, arms, curvature of the spine, inflammation of the joints, aches in the neck or back. All these problems can be directly related to situations or events that have occurred or are occurring in a person's life.
Chronic fatigue, lack of rest and eternal workload can also become the cause of muscle blocks. The body begins to create a so-called muscle carapace to compensate for the loss of energy.
Muscle pains and clamps also occur in those who lead a sedentary lifestyle, constantly work at a computer, perform the same type of actions and movements. To prevent the occurrence of a problem, it is necessary to devote more time to relaxing muscles, playing sports and taking breaks from work, otherwise the pain will intensify over the years and gradually lead to loss of mobility, excess weight and a number of diseases.
For those people who are used to being tough about life, limiting themselves in positive emotions, not allowing them to receive pleasant sensations, pleasures and constantly being in tension, expecting only unpleasant events from life, the occurrence of muscle clamps is only a matter of time. The longer a person is “marinated” in this state, the faster the body will begin to react and create painful blocks.
Another reason may be an unhealthy diet or a chronic illness that has already arisen. If the body does not receive enough vitamins, minerals, the muscles gradually begin to weaken and more and more "muscle stress" accumulates in them, which sooner or later will make itself felt with the help of the pain that has arisen. With neurological or hormonal disorders, the formation of muscle blocks and clamps is also possible. If massage or relaxation procedures do not help, then in this case it is necessary to be examined by a specialist.
