Description
Trigger points are small, irritable knots in muscles that refer pain to other muscles. Usually caused by trauma to the muscle, they can cause tightening and pain in other areas of the body that can't be relieved unless the trigger point is deactivated. Trigger points can occur in any muscle in the body--even the thin ones lining the skull! In this class, you will learn to identify and locate trigger points as well as learn techniques to deactivate them. This invaluable self-help tool has helped many people find relief from problems they have lived with for years. Please consider purchasing The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook: Your Self-Treatment Guide for Pain Relief, Second Edition (available on Amazon for under $15). Although not required, this book will enhance your experience.
