A trigger point is an area of a muscle (about 50 cells) that may refer pain sensations to other parts of the body.
Trigger Point Therapy Massage applies manual pressure, or CO2 injections, to these points.
With the proper pressure, duration and location, immediate release of tension and improved muscular functioning may occur.
This therapy has been known to diminish migraine pain, mock sciatica, mock carpal tunnel syndrome and other pain syndromes, and other symptoms that may have been misdiagnosed.
Sometimes this work is incorporated into other styles of massage therapy such as neuromuscular therapy (NMT) or even Swedish.
