Trigger point Massage

Trigger point massage loosens tense areas in the muscles to relieve pain. You can feel a significant decrease in pain after just one treatment.

Trigger points are described as hyper-irritable spots in the fascia surrounding skeletal muscle. They are associated with palpable nodules (knots) in taut bands of muscle fibers. 

They are a topic of ongoing controversy, as there is limited data to inform a scientific understanding of the phenomenon. Accordingly, a formal acceptance of myofascial “knots” as an identifiable source of pain is more common among body-workers, physical therapists, chiropractors and osteopathic practitioners.

Nonetheless, the concept of trigger points provides a framework which may be used to help address certain musculoskeletal pain.
