Unexpected and involuntary muscle jerks.
Sudden twitching of the arms, legs, or torso.
Shock-like muscle spasms that last for a short time.

According to wikihow, there are some tips and methods that you should follow to avoid tremors during sleep, as follows:
1. Relax before bed:
Relaxing meditation right before bed helps eliminate thoughts and feelings that may be physically disturbing while you sleep.
2. Progressive muscle relaxation:
This is a physical and mental exercise that can help calm your body and mind, by focusing on specific muscles, you take your mind away from tension, to relax your muscles.
You have to do this exercise right before going to sleep.
3. Deep breathing exercises:
Deep breathing relaxes muscles, slows heart rate, and reduces feelings of anxiety and disturbing thoughts.
4. Avoid drinking caffeinated drinks:
Caffeine interferes with your sleep, which increases your feelings of anxiety during sleep, so you should avoid consuming it 8 hours before going to bed to prevent muscle tremors.
5. Maintain a healthy lifestyle:
Try to go to bed at the same time every night, take a warm shower, and read books for 15 minutes each day.
6. Eat foods rich in magnesium:
Magnesium is one of the nutrients necessary to get a good night’s sleep. Some foods include nuts, seeds, legumes, and green vegetables.
7. Body Hydration:
Another way to reduce cramps at night is to drink more water and, in addition, cut down on soda.
– When should you visit the doctor?
People should speak with a medical professional if they experience recurrent episodes of muscle jerks that affect their ability to fall asleep or stay asleep.
