Ergonomics :: FAQ
Why do my muscles occasionally go into muscle spasm?
 
A muscle spasm is a protective mechanism your body employs to prevent an injury from occurring. A spasm is caused by an insufficient blood flow to the working muscles. It is your body’s way of telling you to slow down or stop what you are doing in order to rest the muscle.
