Trigger point therapy is a manual therapy technique that focuses on relieving pain and tension in specific areas of muscle known as trigger points. These trigger points are tight knots that can develop in muscles due to stress, overuse, or injury, leading to discomfort and restricted movement. The therapy involves applying pressure to these points to release tension and improve blood flow. During a trigger point therapy session, a trained therapist uses their fingers, hands, or tools to locate and apply pressure to the trigger points. This process can help alleviate pain, enhance flexibility, and promote relaxation. Many people find trigger point therapy beneficial for managing chronic pain conditions, such as fibromyalgia or tension headaches.
