Trigger Point Therapy
Yes! No matter where in your body is your muscle pain,
there is a good chance of having it relieved completely!
Scientifically Based
Trigger Point Therapy
is a scientifically based modality
that treats points on the muscle for pain relief and
improved tissue condition. It shares some characteristics with Acupressure,
Shiatsu and even Acupuncture (no needles are involved).
Muscle Tightness
A muscle or muscle group can be traumatized due to injury, overuse
or sudden exertion. In most cases, there will be some degree of
inflammation. You will feel some pain
associated with the inflammation process. When this heals it leaves the affected muscle
slightly tighter than before. This tightness makes the muscle
shorter and gives it a thicker texture.
Pain
Process
If the above conditions repeat themselves, the muscle tightening
process will continue. In the beginning intermittent tightness is
felt, then it becomes constant. As the tightness increases, first
it will cause to occasional pain
which is associated with tightness (not inflammation)
and then as the tightness saturates the
pain will turn chronic and
the muscle could even spasm. The
thickening muscles could impinge (press) on nerves that pass
through and between
them causing another kind of pain
( this time nerve-associated) that spreads far beyond the original
area. The pain and limited range of motion with this condition can prevent one from performing regular
activities.
Treatment
Description
Trigger Point Therapy has proven to be highly successful in
restoring muscle to perform its normal functions in comfort.
Restoration of muscle tone improves the efficiency and
hence performance which can be invaluable to an
athlete. This restorative
therapy does not involve physical manipulation of the muscle. It
simple involves treatment of points on the muscle that actually
relieve
the tension in the muscle. With repeated treatment the muscle can
be restored to its normal and supple texture and full length when
relaxed.
Expected
Results
As the tightness of the muscle diminishes the chronic pain also
diminishes. This demonstrates that chronic pain is triggered
by extreme tightness in the muscle. With the tightness removed, not
only is the pain relieved but also the restored muscle tone and length
now increases Range of Motion and facilitates blood circulation which
increases energy levels. For a detailed
explanation of the pain process and how trigger point therapy
works go to the

Relief
from Chronic Muscle Pain
Most of us have experienced muscle pain in some parts of our bodies
Perhaps you have
neck and
shoulder pain, or discomfort when walking or standing, caused by
tight and painful muscles in your low back. These are the 2
most commonly affected areas..
The simple muscle tightening
process can start a chain reaction causing some serious medical problems.
The tightness of the different layers of muscles compress blood vessels and
nerves that run through and in between the tight muscles, causing restricted
blood supply to surrounding areas. This chain reaction could spread the
trauma to the surrounding soft tissue and the tightening process becomes self
perpetuating. This process activates trigger points in all the affected
muscles.
Chronic pain is only the "tip of the iceberg". Before this there are
several stages, first occasional tightness, then constant, which might be
accompanied by mild discomfort. Then as the tightness increases there will
be occasional sharp pains which will be brief and probably not command too much
attention. And finally the pain comes and stays. As time passes
these pain episodes will last longer and longer, and this is what commands your
attention and forces you to find a solution.
Trigger Point Therapy is a highly effective muscle restoration therapy
and besides relieving pain it offers many other health benefits. For a detailed list of

Muscle Restoration for Sports
Performance
If you're active, into sport, or especially
a competitive athlete, your muscle condition, range of motion and energy levels
are very important to you. The range of motion will enable you to use the full
extension of the muscle and the restored muscle with improved blood supply, will
be able to do more work for much longer, without tightening up on you.
Essentially what this amounts to is a dramatic Improvement in your sports
performance.
If your muscles are already half tight
before starting your workout, due to the physical exertion from the work
out, the muscles will tighten further and cause you to fatigue quickly.
That is what causes the aches and pains the day after a long day of
sporting activities.
Trigger Point Therapy will restore the resting muscle tone to its ideal
soft and long state when relaxed, facilitating efficient blood
circulation and increasing range of motion. This actually increases
energy levels, muscle strength and delays fatigue which is invaluable to
competitive athletes.
