Conditions Treated

Trigger points are hyperirritable bands within muscle that cause local and referred pain. Injecting these points releases the contracted tissue and interrupts the pain cycle.
The procedure
Trigger point injections take only a few minutes and most patients notice relief quickly. They are frequently used alongside other treatments and movement therapy for lasting results.
