Trigger Point Therapy
Trigger Point Therapy is a targeted massage technique designed to relieve pain and tension caused by tight knots in the muscles, known as trigger points. By applying focused pressure to these areas, Trigger Point Therapy helps release muscle constriction, reduce referred pain, and restore proper movement and function.
What to Expect During Trigger Point Therapy
During your session, your therapist will locate specific trigger points that may be causing pain or discomfort. Using a combination of sustained pressure and massage techniques, they will help release tight knots and restore normal muscle function. Techniques may include:
- Direct Pressure — Firm, sustained pressure on tight trigger points to release knots
- Ischemic Compression — Steady pressure to reduce restricted blood flow and release tension
- Stretching and Release — Gentle stretching of muscles to encourage full release of knots
- Myofascial Techniques — Loosens surrounding fascia to improve mobility
- Breathing and Feedback — Client-guided deep breathing and communication for optimal results
