Trigger Point Massage
60 minutes
Trigger point therapy is a specialized form of massage therapy that focuses on identifying and releasing trigger points, which are hyperirritable spots in skeletal muscle that can cause referred pain and discomfort. These trigger points are often palpable as nodules or bands within the muscle tissue and can be sensitive to pressure. Trigger point therapy aims to deactivate these points through various techniques, such as sustained pressure, deep tissue massage, and stretching, to alleviate pain and restore normal muscle function.
During a trigger point therapy session, the massage therapist will work closely with the client to identify areas of tension and discomfort and apply targeted pressure to the trigger points to release tension and promote relaxation. This can help to alleviate chronic pain conditions, improve range of motion, and enhance overall physical well-being. Trigger point therapy is often used in conjunction with other massage techniques to address specific areas of concern and provide comprehensive relief from muscular pain and dysfunction.
