Muscle tension refers to the condition in which muscles remain semi-contracted for an extended period. It can be a response to stress, overuse, or injury. Excessive muscle tension can lead to discomfort, fatigue, tightness, and could potentially affect muscle tone negatively. Regular massage therapy can play a pivotal role in reducing this muscle tension, thereby contributing to improved muscle tone (Field, 2014).

Muscle fiber repair is a crucial process in maintaining and improving muscle tone. When muscles undergo exertion during physical activity, tiny microtears can occur in the muscle fibers. While this may sound detrimental, it is, in fact, a normal and essential part of muscle growth and strengthening. The body naturally repairs these microtears, leading to stronger and better-toned muscles. Massage therapy may aid this repair process, contributing to improved muscle tone (Crane et al., 2012).
