Muscle pain can have many causes such as overuse syndrome (repetitive strains), overstretching, trauma, postural stresses, toxins and nutritional deficiencies and much more. There are even multiple classifications/conditions of muscle pain such as myalgia, myofascial pain syndrome, fibromyalgia, muscle spasms, etc… The key is to isolate the specific cause of the muscle pain and begin treatment specific to that cause. Chiropractic care and massage therapy are vital components in the proper management and treatment of muscle pain whether it is an acute or chronic condition. Reestablishing and maintaining healthy and flexible muscles is vital to your health and well-being.
