Trigger Point Therapy
Trigger point therapy is a technique which relieves chronic pain from long standing tension. Trigger point therapy works by locating spots in muscles that are chronically contracted. When pressed, these spots will often radiate pain to adjacent areas. Static pressure is applied to these trigger points for a short time, then the muscles are gently stretched. This work increases blood flow in the area and helps relieve cramping. It also alerts the nervous system to the source of tension, encouraging the body's natural healing processes to alleviate the underlying issue. Trigger point work can feel intense, but the relief derived from it is often quite dramatic.
