Trigger Point Massage
What is a Trigger Point?- A trigger point (TP) is a section of muscle which has shortened/tightened due to overactivity.
- TP’s are present throughout the body and may be latent (no symptoms) or active.
- An active TP causes pain due to the muscle shortening. This may be local or referred pain.
- The shortened portion of muscle is unable to contract and hence strength is reduced.
- TP’s present as a palpable lump in a muscle.
