EVERY MUSCLE WITHIN OUR BODY IS IMPORTANT AND HAS A PURPOSE – THERE ARE MANY MUSCLES THAT WORK TOGETHER TO SUPPORT A JOINT OR AN AREA OF THE BODY .
When muscles that work together to support a part of the body aren ’ t equally doing their job , this results in a muscle imbalance ; such as a muscle that is very tight and another that is weak . For example , many people spend a large portion of their day sitting and will complain of tightness in the front of their hip or with their hip flexors . When I see a patient who reports having tight hip flexors and discomfort at the front of their hips , not only is it important to provide adequate stretches to alleviate the tension but to also determine if there is a weakness with one of the other muscles . Often a muscle that continuously gets stiff after repeated stretches is due to that tight muscle working extra hard . It is important to determine the cause of that muscle tightness which may be the cause of adjacent muscle weakness . In those cases , it is important to provide adequate strengthening exercises in addition to stretches to truly alleviate the muscle tension . - Kitsilano Physiotherapy Clinic , www . kitsilanophysio . com
