When a muscle contracts involuntarily, a muscle spasm occurs. There are many different types of muscle spasms. They usually occur in skeletal muscles and are the result of injury, overworked muscles, or dehydration.

A muscle spasm can be quite painful, with the muscle feeling as if it is tightening. Spasms of various types of tissues can also occur and can be caused by stress, medications, excessive exercise, or other factors. They are treated with chiropractic manipulation and various techniques.
