Muscle Imbalance

Muscle Imbalance: Causes, Effects, and Treatment

Muscle imbalance happens when certain muscles become stronger or tighter than their opposing muscles. This can lead to poor posture, altered movement, pain, and higher injury risk. Common causes include repetitive activities, poor posture, sedentary lifestyle, or past injuries.

At Health Plus Physical Therapy, we address muscle imbalances through personalized exercise programs, manual therapy, and posture training. This helps reduce pain, improve mobility, and prevent future injuries. Conditions like plantar fasciitis, migraines, and back pain often improve significantly when muscle balance is restored.
