Trigger Point Therapy
When a muscle is extremely tight or in spasm, a build up of lactic acid forms small contractual knots causing fatigue, stress and poor circulation. The pain caused by trigger points in the muscles is often misdiagnosed as arthritis, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome or a number of other conditions. They can also refer pain to other areas of the body along nerve pathways - often where the pain is felt isn't where the treatment is required. Trigger points in muscles can pull on tendons and ligaments associated with the muscles causing pain deep within a joint where there are no muscles.
By applying pressure to these points deep in the muscles, tension and pain can be relieved and improved freedom of movement to joints can be achieved.
