Trigger Points
Trigger points are small, tight knots that form in muscles, often causing pain and discomfort. They can develop due to various factors, including stress, overuse, or injury. When pressure is applied to these points, they may refer pain to other areas of the body, making it difficult to pinpoint the source of discomfort.
Treatment for trigger points often involves techniques such as massage, stretching, and physical therapy. These methods aim to release the tension in the affected muscles and improve overall function. Understanding and addressing trigger points can help alleviate pain and enhance mobility in individuals experiencing muscle-related issues.
