In this episode of Busy Brains and Ankle Sprains, we dive into the world of muscle spasms. Learn what they are, why they happen, and what your body might be asking for when they strike. We break down the physiology behind these often painful episodes, explore the role of your nervous system, hydration, posture, and stress, and give you actionable tips on how to support your body to prevent future flare-ups.

Whether you’re an athlete, a parent, a chronic overthinker (hi, busy brain), or someone with hypermobile joints or connective tissue quirks, this episode helps decode the signals your body is sending so you can move better, feel stronger, and maybe stop doing computer work in a gargoyle pose.
