Joints and muscles were designed, in part, to communicate with your brain. Every time you move, your joints take in nourishment and send vital messages to your brain about your body's position in space. Your brain uses this information to coordinate surrounding muscle contraction and help maintain proper joint-surface contact.
Proper joint-surface contact and good joint nourishment reduces joint wear and tear (arthritis) and slows the degeneration process.
Joint or muscle trauma, repetitive stress injuries (like carpal tunnel or tennis elbow), poor posture, lack of exercise, and arthritis interrupt and weaken the communication between your joints and your brain. This weakened communication creates a vicious cycle of pain and spasm, which further reduces joint motion, increases pain and stiffness, creates poor posture, increases stress and leads to accelerated joint degeneration.
