Do you suffer from persistent muscle pain or tightness that disrupts your daily life? Trigger point therapy offers a reliable solution for long-lasting relief. This targeted myofascial release technique is designed to reduce discomfort, improve range of motion, and provide relief from even chronic pain.
What is Trigger Point Therapy?
Trigger point therapy uses gentle, sustained pressure on specific areas of muscle and fascia (the connective tissue around muscles) to alleviate tension. Targeting trigger points—commonly referred to as “knots”—can reduce both localized pain and referral pain in connected areas. For example, a neck trigger point may relieve associated headaches and upper back pain, providing holistic relief.
How Does Trigger Point Therapy Work?
At Chicago Pain & Wellness, our specialists conduct a thorough assessment to identify the exact areas causing pain. Applying repeated pressure on these points, we work to release the tension, allowing for increased flexibility and comfort. This hands-on approach, combined with patient involvement in identifying discomfort areas and using deep breathing techniques, creates a collaborative environment that maximizes pain relief. Many patients experience significant results after just one session, building trust in the efficacy of this treatment.
Who Can Benefit?
Trigger point therapy is highly effective for a wide range of individuals, from athletes dealing with overuse injuries to professionals with work-related muscle tension. This therapy uniquely focuses on treating specific pain points, preventing further strain, and promoting a proactive approach to managing pain. With regular treatment, it can naturally relieve pain, alleviate stress, and support your long-term health.
