TRIGGERPOINT THERAPY

Trigger Point Therapy is a targeted treatment technique that focuses on releasing tight, sensitive areas within the muscle, commonly known as trigger points.
A trigger point is a localized knot within muscle tissue that can cause pain, discomfort, and even refer pain to other areas of the body. These points often develop due to overuse, poor posture, or repetitive movement patterns.

How Trigger Point Therapy Works
Trigger Point Therapy involves applying precise, sustained pressure to these tight areas in order to:
• Release muscle tension
• Reduce referred pain patterns
• Restore normal muscle function
• Improve overall movement
Treatment may involve the use of hands, fingers, elbows, or specialised tools, depending on the depth and location of the trigger point.

What Can Trigger Point Therapy Help With?
This technique is commonly used to address:
• Chronic muscle pain and tightness
• Tension-related headaches
• Postural discomfort (e.g. neck, shoulders, lower back)
• Movement restrictions affecting performance

Benefits of Trigger Point Therapy
When applied correctly, Trigger Point Therapy can:
• Reduce pain and muscular discomfort
• Improve mobility and range of motion
• Enhance circulation to affected areas
• Support recovery and muscular balance
