What Are Trigger Points?
Trigger points are hyperirritable spots within tight bands of muscle or fascia. They can develop from stress, injury, overuse or poor posture, and often lead to complex pain patterns. Common symptoms include:
- Localized stiffness and tenderness
- Referred pain in nearby or distant areas
- Restricted range of motion
- Increased risk of compensatory injuries
By applying firm, sustained pressure to these points, we break up adhesions and reset healthy tissue mechanics.
Conditions That Benefit from Therapy
Because fascia envelops every muscle, addressing trigger points can help with a wide range of clinical issues:
- Sciatica & low back pain
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Tennis elbow & golfer’s elbow
- Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)
- Headaches & migraines
- TMJ dysfunction
- Whiplash injuries
- Thoracic outlet syndrome
Preparing for Your Session
To maximize your outcomes, we combine trigger point release with stretches and joint mobilizations. Please keep the following in mind:
Appropriate Attire: Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing and supportive shoes.
Hydration: Stay well-hydrated—aim for half your body weight in ounces of water daily.
Records: Bring your medical history and any imaging or prior treatment notes.
Communication: Be ready to share your pain patterns for an accurate clinical diagnosis.
