Muscle Pain Is Caused From What?

Muscle pain is caused from what?  Before we go on with this blog let’s attack the known muscle pain that is often associated with a “Charley Horse”.  Charley Horses are often brought on after somebody directly or indirectly makes contact with their fist (or an object) to your arm, leg or other part of your body, thus resulting in a cramping sensation.  Muscle pain will often ensure after a Charley Horse.  So, now to talk about the other muscle pain that is chronic and often burdensome to others.  The musculoskeletal system is vitally important to maintaining life and allowing you to perform functions on a daily basis.  What wreaks havoc on our muscles?  Posture!  Poor posture is a catalyst for chronic muscle pain.  Look at our society and see how many people have desk related jobs where they are sitting for extended periods of time or constantly compromising their neck muscles while texting. 

As the story goes with chronic muscle pain there has to be an underlying reason why?  Enter the Nerve System!  The nerve system regulates and controls all other systems within the human body, and the musculoskeletal system is one of those.  The nerve system is protected by your spinal bones and within your spine you are supposed to have three curvatures when visualizing somebody from the side and then a straight spine when visualizing somebody from the front or back.  Subluxations within the spine occur without you noticing and take time to manifest until you actually notice a symptom such as chronic pain.  A subluxation places stress upon your spinal nerves which in turn creates a central nerve system dysfunction within your body.  Posture plays a key role in the creation of subluxations by creating improper curvatures within the spine.  As these improper curvatures continually progress your spinal nerves are disconnected from sending proper messages to organs, cells, tissues, and muscle.  Muscle pain progresses due to your body constantly wanting to walk straight and fighting the constant improper posture brought on by subluxations.  Your muscles begin over-firing on one side and under-firing on the other side of your spine or both sides can be constantly over-firing (everyone is different).  

By correcting the subluxations with specific chiropractic care your body is properly connected and transmitting messages to your muscles.  Restoring proper curvatures within the spine enables your nerve system to function at its optimal capacity which allows your musculoskeletal system to fire appropriately, which in time decreases muscle pain.  The body is an amazing structure, treating muscle pain with over the counter medication or potions only covers up the true underlying reason.  Have your nerve system evaluated and get checked for possible subluxations.

Not Just Muscle Pain

Not Just Muscle Pain

Chiropractic is not just muscle pain.  Some in our society think that chiropractic is just for relief of muscle pain or just any sensation of pain in general.  Muscle pain is an issue and will be dealt with; however there is an underlying causative factor as to why there is muscle pain.  A subluxation occurs when a vertebrae applies pressure on a spinal nerve, this “pressure” on the nerve creates dysfunction within the body.  Dysfunction causes the messages from the brain to the muscles to become distorted, resulting in improper firing sequences.  Your body does this for protective measures to at least have some functionality available.  You see, that nerve with pressure on it not only has motor control (which is geared towards your muscles) but it also has autonomic control.  Your autonomic nerves are regulating and controlling your adrenal glands: kidneys, heart, lungs, etc.  Even with pressure upon a nerve, your body is still designed to function, regardless of the sensation of muscle pain!

Visiting the chiropractor for just muscle pain is like robbing a bank and just taking the free pens!  Chiropractors focus on correcting the cause of your problems, not just the suppressing symptoms that are apparent.  Muscle pain is an issue that can come and go while the real signs and symptoms can continue for fester for a prolonged period of time.  That is why regular chiropractic adjustments maintain the vital communication from your brain to your body to allow you to function at optimal potential and stay healthy!  So, the question is what are you concentrating on?  Are you more focused on the symptoms or what is actually causing the problem?  By addressing the problem not only do the symptoms disperse but your body in general is allowed to heal with proper connection to all your organs, cells, tissues, and glands.  Regardless if it’s muscle pain or just a curiosity, you live your life through your nerve system.  Every human interaction you have is processed through your nerve system.  It is a chiropractor’s responsibility to make sure that system is functioning at 100%
