Default Tic

tic. (http://<font size="3"><font color="#...</font></font> tic).m. Movimiento convulsivo, que se repite con frecuencia, producido por la contracción involuntaria de uno o varios músculos.

Creo que twitch equivale a tic.
Si quieres ser más explícito, puedes poner tic nervioso.

Con relación a músculos la mejor opción me parece :

contracción (muscular)

También

espasmos (musculares)

I apologize for not giving you more context. It refers to the contraction of bundles of muscle fibers with no coordination and within the same muscle, sometimes so shallow that they can be seen right below the skin. I think I like the term "fasciculaciones" within this context. Thank you for your contribution (I will surely keep "tic" in mind for a different context)!

Fasciculación

De Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre


Las fasciculaciones son pequeñas e involuntarias contracciones musculares, visibles bajo la piel y que no producen movimiento de miembros, debidas a descargas nerviosas espontáneas en grupos de fibras musculares esqueléticas. Normalmente son totalmente benignas, pero pueden estar provocadas por patologíasneurológicas que sí pueden ser graves. La causa más común de fasciculaciones persistentes es el síndrome de fasciculación benigno.



I think you found the word!!
