A member asked:
Trying to induce muscle release while sleeping. is there a tool that can "clamp" say a tight calf spot during sleep to cause release?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sounds like cramp: I gather that your calf muscle contracts and cramps in the night. You may be lacking in magnesium. Try soaking in a warm bath with a hadful of epsom salts in the water. This will provide magnesium that will go through the skin and get into the blood stream.
