By Catherine Beyer. The ankh is the most well known symbol to come out of ancient Egypt. In their hieroglyphic system of writing the ankh represents the concept of eternal life, and that is the general meaning of the symbol.
If you feel the need to stretch or massage muscles regularly due to cramp, there is usually an underlying cause that should be dealt with. The good news is that most types of cramp and muscle spasm respond very well to chiropractic treatment and advice. There are also other causes of cramp such as side effects from taking medication, or underlying medical problems, which we will cover later under secondary cramp.
Chiropractic treats the problem naturally and in turn prompts the body to heal itself. While it's often perceived that the chiropractor solely treats back and neck pain, this is a small piece of what the profession is capable of handling. Chiropractors not only treat soft and hard tissue problems such as sciatica and joint pain, but are largely called on to deal with many different health issues.
