Do you always feel tight—and just assume it’s your job, your posture, or your age?

A lot of people live with neck tension, stiff hamstrings, or an achy back and just accept it as normal. They figure it’s because they sit too much, work too hard, or are just getting older.

But in this episode, Dr. Bart explains why that might not be the full story.

Chronic tightness isn’t just a muscle issue—it’s often your body reacting to stress, poor posture, and nervous system overload. Stretching might help short term, but if the tension keeps coming back, there’s likely something deeper going on.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:

  • Why your body holds on to tightness (even if you stretch or exercise)

  • What stress, inflammation, and sitting all day really do to your system

  • Why deep massages and aggressive stretching don’t always work

  • How this all connects to your long-term health and mobility

  • What you can start doing now to help your body loosen up and feel safe again

This episode is for anyone who feels stuck, tense, or just tired of trying everything with no results.

It might shift the way you think about pain—and give you a new path forward.
