Balancing Your Muscles

Muscle Imbalance can jeopardize the integrity of your musculoskeletal system and create instability that leads to injury.  Muscle Imbalance results when the STRONG muscles overshadow the WEAK muscles.  This throws off the body's equilibrium and puts you at a greater risk for strain and pain.  Many people suffer from lower back pain.  Did you ever wonder why?  When muscles are imbalanced, they have unequal amounts of tension on either side of the joint.  When one muscle is doing most of the work- it becomes too TIGHT.  The other one becomes weak and fatigued!  However, there is a solution without surgery or pain medication....CORRECT THE IMBALANCE!!!  When each muscle on either side of the joint has an equal amount of tension, then the joint is in a "neutral" position.  This neutral position allows the joint to move normally and keep each muscle doing an equal amount of work.  In this scenario, the Muscles are Balanced and you will have long-lasting relief from pain without surgery.
