What Causes Knots In Your Back And Shoulder And How Can You Get Natural Relief

Knots in your upper back are no fun! You'd like to make them go away but they stay and stay. What causes those muscle spasms or "knots"? Would you believe your muscles are actually the most common cause? And muscles are the most commonly overlooked cause of pain in the medical field.A "knot" is actually a spasm or contraction (tightening & shortening) in a muscle. Over-work and over-stretching are the most common causes of these spasms. Some of your muscles are working "too hard" and others are not pulling their load. Your body has become "out of balance."When you were a child, you used all of your 600+ muscles. Then you grew up. But now that we are grown, most of us use only 70 or so muscles every day. Not good.Some of your muscles are getting short from being used all the time. Some are getting stretched because they have become weak and cannot hold their own against the stronger, shorter muscles.To protect themselves when they are being stretched too far muscles can go into a contraction (that means they get short, too, but it is a different type of contraction than the muscles that you use all the time.) That protects them from injury (being ripped) but it gives you a "pain in the back."Most pain of this sort happens in the back near the spine or shoulder blade or on the outer side of the back under the arm.This pain is a clue!It means that your muscles are unhappy about something. And when your muscles are unhappy your job is to figure out why and make a correction (or as many corrections are you need to make.)This type of pain often comes from poor posture. If you are collapsing forward or have a "forward head" or rounded upper back it puts a lot of pressure on the muscles of your upper back.It can also come from losing the curve in your lower back. An activity such as carrying babies on your hip can cause lots of knots in backs. So can using a computer mouse. And, there are many other causes, too.The good news is that most of the causes of your knots involve muscles and muscles are treatable!That means that you can get rid of your knots naturally. Here's what to do (I make it sound so easy, don't I?) is figure out the causes of your muscle spasms and take the necessary steps to get rid of the causes.Why do I keep talking about the "cause" of your pain?Here's why: So if someone blasts away on the knot in your back and it will not relax, there is a reason. It cannot relax! Something is making it happen and until that "something" (the cause) goes away that knot is stuck on your poor back.
