Experience Deep Relief with Trigger Point Therapy
At Body Mechanics Orthopedic Massage, we understand that muscle pain and tension can significantly impact your daily life. Our Trigger Point Therapy is specifically designed to target these issues, providing deep relief where you need it most. Our expert therapists in Midtown Manhattan are skilled in identifying and treating the specific trigger points that contribute to your pain and discomfort.
Understanding the Technique
What is Trigger Point Therapy?
Trigger Point Therapy is a form of massage therapy that involves applying pressure to specific, sensitive 'trigger points' in your muscles. These 'trigger points' are often tight bands of muscle that lead to chronic pain. You might hear them called 'knots' as well.
There are numerous theories about what causes the issue, but nothing has been proven 100%. Science continues to change! They are also associated with referred pain and twitch responses in the muscle. These points are often the source of pain and can refer to discomfort in other areas of the body. By precisely targeting and treating these points, Trigger Point Therapy can:
- Relieve pain and soreness
- Increase range of motion
- Reduce muscle tension and stiffness
- Improve muscle flexibility
- Make you more comfortable
Treatment Approach
How Are Trigger Points Treated?
Trigger point therapy is typically worked into a larger session; it would not be the only technique used. Therapists apply pressure to the area of discomfort in order to stimulate the muscle to let go. This is called “ischemic” compression. A massage therapist might use their elbow, forearm, or fingers to perform this.
Trigger Point therapy is typically associated with longer, deeper holds (or lengths of contact). In some cases, a therapist might also pinch the tissue firmly between their fingers to achieve the same effect or rolling the tissue between their fingers.
