Trigger points are localized areas of excessive muscle tension, commonly known as muscle knots, that develop due to overuse, repetitive strain, poor posture, injury, emotional stress, or prolonged muscle fatigue. These trigger points can produce both localized pain and referred pain, meaning discomfort may be felt in a completely different area of the body. They often contribute to headaches, neck pain, shoulder pain, back pain, and reduced muscle performance.
Our Trigger Point Therapy begins with a detailed assessment to identify active trigger points responsible for pain and movement restrictions. Using specialized manual pressure and release techniques, our physiotherapists gradually deactivate these painful muscle knots, improve blood circulation, reduce muscle tightness, and restore normal muscle function. Treatment is often combined with stretching, posture correction, strengthening exercises, and ergonomic education to prevent recurrence. By addressing the underlying muscular dysfunction, Trigger Point Therapy helps improve mobility, reduce chronic pain, and enhance overall physical performance.
