Trigger Point Massage

Trigger point therapy targets painful, tight knots (trigger points) in muscles, often causing referred pain elsewhere, by applying sustained pressure (ischemic compression) or other techniques to release tension, improve circulation, and restore normal muscle function, aiming to break the pain cycle. It can involve massage, stretching, dry needling, or injections, providing relief for headaches, back pain, and chronic muscle tightness by deactivating these hyper irritable spots and reprogramming muscle memory, feeling like a "good hurt" as tight spots release.
