Trigger points are small tight knots that develop in our muscle tissue that cause referred pain in other parts of the body. For example, a trigger point in the back may produce referral pain in the neck. This in turn may cause pain in other areas of the body such as the head. The pain may range from sharp and intense or just a dull ache.

Trigger point massage therapy is specifically designed to target the source of the pain through cycles of isolated pressure and release techniques to the affected muscle area.  Depending on the size or location of the trigger point, more than one application of trigger point massage therapy may be required to alleviate the issue.

The benefits of trigger point massage are to release constricted areas in the muscles thus alleviating your pain. You can experience a significant decrease in pain after just one treatment. Receiving trigger point therapy massage on a regular basis can help you naturally manage pain and stress from chronic injuries.
