Performing daily activities can lead to over-use of muscle groups. Tiny tears, pulls and collisions can occur within the muscle and tendons of your body while you’re sitting at a desk for a prolonged period of time, grabbing or reaching in the kitchen or participating in a sporting event.  This causes your body to produce scar tissue fibers that are deposited in the muscle preventing it from a full range of motion.  Scar tissue in the muscles cause them to become shorter and weaker and can lead to trapped nerves and tendons causing tendonitis, tingling, numbness, and pain.
