TRIGGER POINT

Trigger points are sensitive areas that form in tight muscles due to stress, poor posture, and overuse. Trigger points can be deactivated and can relieve pain such as headaches and migraines.


The body is a matrix of intertwined muscles, joints and tendons. Trigger point massage taps into the body’s internal web of muscles and tissues to unlock common chronic and injury-related pains caused by tension and stress. 


Doing continuous movement can irritate tissue, which over time can lead to the development of trigger points. Ultimately, when tissues remain in a contracted state for long periods of time they can harden and create little nodules that massage therapists can pulsate and feel for during a trigger point massage.


Trigger point therapy helps reduce pain, relieve tension and promote a better range of motion. It’s a great tool for many to unlock an area, but it’s also great to increase circulation and help muscles regain full function.


Note: Clients can experience soreness in the areas worked on for about 2 days.
