Trigger Point Therapy
Trigger point treatment helps with chronic pain in the back, neck, shoulders, hips, buttocks, with tennis elbows, injuries or headaches. Often the cause is so-called trigger points, which lead to tension, and pain. Myosfascial trigger points are shortened and hardened muscle fibers that form a knot in the tissue. They are often caused by incorrect body alignment, tension, postural disorders, stress or other illnesses.
