Cramping and spasms during sleep is usually due to an exaggeration of a normal muscle reflex. When you turn during sleep, you contract your calf muscles and stretch their tendons. This stimulates nerve stretch receptors in the tendon and sends a message back to the spinal cord, telling the calf muscles to contract. Sometimes, the muscles remain contracted and hurt. Painful muscle cramps or spasms at night can also be caused by pinched nerves, a partially-obstructed flow of blood to the legs and abnormal mineral or hormone levels, so if you have this problem, check with your doctor.
The only drug that has been shown to be effective in treating night-time leg cramps is quinine, but the Food and Drug Administration has ruled that none of the over-the-counter drugs used to treat night-time leg cramps are recognized as safe or effective and therefore, will be subject to regulatory action. Doctors often prescribe 1 or 2 quinine pills at bedtime, but they can cause birth defects and miscarriages, so they should never be taken by a pregnant woman. They can also cause ringing in the ears, headache, nausea, disturbed vision, chest pain and asthma.
Debbie (see Pain Study)
Just a quick note to let you know how much I have appreciated the use of the sleep shirt. When I got the shirt from you I was having what I would call severe pain across my shoulder blades that radiated all across my back and upper shoulders. When I would sit down at my desk or computer at work it would just aggravate it. I was taking Naproxen and alternating with Tylenol and Advil just to get some relief. When it hurts this bad I usually go to my massage therapist but I just didn’t have the time so when you offered the shirt I was ready to try anything. I will have to admit I was rather skeptical because I had been in your study and received the placebo patches and therefore had no relief from this product.
Surprisingly I slept very sound the first night. I usually toss and turn quite a bit during the night and end up on my stomach. I do not think I moved all night - woke up and had no back pain and felt quite refreshed for a good nights sleep. I was tempted to wear it to work because I thought it would help while there but didn’t because the shirt is quite thick and would show through my clothes. After I was there I wished I had - it did tighten up and was sore. I wore the shirt 4 nights in a row and very glad for it - by the fifth day I had stopped having the tightness and pain and was not taking anymore pain relievers during the day. I’m not sure how the shirt works but I did receive considerable relief while using it. Brenda, RN, BSN
Muscle Relaxation Study
Another study underway is 50% complete as to the field work. It involves muscle relaxation. The protocol was to test if our product induces muscle relaxation by interfering with the sensitivity of muscle stretch receptors. This study uses the massage cones.
Notes from the Researchers
The research was performed on mice. Basically they measured the flexibility that would occur over a 20 minute period by moving the mouse leg back and forth during this time period. Numerous tests were performed at three different frequencies to establish the control. The charts show how the muscle resistance decreases over time. In other words, warming up your muscles moves them to maximum flexibility.
Once these standards were developed, the same procedures were followed only a massage cone was applied to the belly of the muscles. The results show that our product quickly allows the muscle to move to full flexibility.
In another test, the muscles were at full flexibility and then our product was applied. In these tests nothing happened.
The next stage of the study will be 1) To record nervous activity in dorsal roots of the spinal cord during static and dynamic stretch, and 2) To determine static and dynamic muscle stiffness with or without topical application following cutting of dorsal roots.
We have no idea how, or if, this muscle relaxation relates to the pain relieve or the anti-inflammatory action noted in the other studies. However, it is possible injury could be prevented if muscles were relaxed by wearing our product.

The research has proven to be more difficult than anticipated primarily because there has never been any research, at least documented, concerning how muscles relax or why muscles become more flexible.

Shoulder pain and stiffness is generally is caused by muscle cramps. These usually occur when a muscle tries to do more work than it has the strength and flexibility to handle. As a result, most people have experienced a cramped shoulder, calf, biceps, hand or other muscle at some time.
Another cause can be dehydration. Muscle cells are made up of 80 percent fluids, so they need to be replenished constantly. A combination of overwork and dehydration can be more devastating.
Shoulder pain and stiffness can be relieved by relaxing the muscles.
When the muscle is irritated, it cramps to protect the area of difficulty. People who overuse their muscles during the day sometimes wake up at night with cramps. The best way to avoid a cramp is to warm up and stretch before and after exercise, and stay hydrated.

What are Goode Wraps?
They are elasticized compression shorts or sports wraps. Each of these is impregnated with a unique blend of natural rare-earth semiconductors. Goode Wraps are available for the hip, groin, foot, ankle, knee, elbows, and wrist. In fact, the semiconductors can be added to almost any cloth like material.
What are they used for?
Primarily to control pain, swelling and stiffness. They are ideal for tired aching muscles or joints from sporting activity, exercise and repetitive stress injuries. The Goode Wraps help the muscles regain strength and prevent or lessen the sharp pain in joints from tendon stress.
Is there anything similar on the market?
Not in the United States. Only in Japan and Belgium. Goode Wraps are the only products of this type to be made available here and the process is patented in Japan and the United States.
In reality, pain in hip, and knee joints can be nothing more serious than referred pain from myofascial trigger points (tiny contraction knots) in the muscles of the hip and thigh. Even when a hip or knee joint has suffered a verifiable physical injury, trigger points in associated muscles always contribute a major part of the pain. Referred pain can be every bit as intense and debilitating as pain from a damaged joint.
Some researchers suspect that trigger points may actually be the root cause of true osteoarthritis and other kinds of joint deterioration. This is because muscles afflicted with trigger points become shortened and stiff. When this happens, even normal movement puts undue strain on muscle attachments at the joints, which can eventually result in damage to connective tissue and distortion of the joints themselves.
