The Use of Massage Therapy on Trigger Points

We refer to trigger points as painful spots that are located in the muscle. Trigger points are also called knots and are very sensitive when any amount of pressure is applied. The pressure typically causes pain in another part of the body. Trigger points have many causes, including over or under exertion of the muscles, poor posture, and injury. When we use massage therapy to treat trigger points. It releases and softens the knot in the muscle to reduce all associated pain. The massage can generate discomfort as well as relief. There may be some tiredness or soreness for a couple of days after the therapy, but it has been noted that some patients feel more energized after having massage therapy on trigger points.
