Trigger Point Therapy
Here at Salish Integrated Medical, we are proud to offer trigger point therapy for patients struggling with fibromyalgia, tension headaches, myofascial pain, and muscle pain in the arms, legs, lower back and neck. This modality is most effective when combined with one of our regenerative treatments.
How Does Trigger Point Therapy Work?
During your appointment, we will locate the source of your pain and perform specific manipulations on the muscles, fascia, and connective tissues. The goal of trigger point therapy is to release or soften a muscle knot in order to reduce or eliminate knot pain and associated pain.
This procedure is safe and the risk of possible complications is very low. You may experience soreness or numbness for a temporary period of time. While you should avoid strenuous activity for a few days, you should be able to actively use your muscles immediately following treatment.
Conditions That Benefit From Trigger Point Therapy
Trigger point therapy can help relieve muscle pain, particularly in the arms, legs, lower back, and neck. Other conditions that trigger point therapy help to accelerate healing, include:
- Sciatica
- Headaches
- Sports injuries
If you are experiencing muscle pain, trigger point therapy combined with regenerative treatment may be for you. Schedule a consultation with Salish Integrated Medical to determine the best option for you.
