It is believed that a muscle spasm is usually caused by one of three things: a lack of oxygen to the affected muscle which is most likely caused by restricted blood flow to that area; a lack of oxygen due to overwork of that particular muscle; and, thirdly, that the spasm is simply a reflex reaction.
Practice that relaxation technique until you are able to apply it almost automatically as a reflex reaction, whenever you experience an anxiety attack.
