Trigger point therapy is a focused, results-driven approach to relieving muscle pain and tension. By targeting tight knots within the muscle, it helps reduce pain, restore movement, and improve how your body feels overall.
At PT Massage Therapy, I specialize in finding and releasing trigger points β so you get real relief, not just a temporary sense of relaxation.
What are trigger points?
Trigger points are tight, sensitive areas within a muscle that can cause:
Local pain
Referred pain (pain in other areas)
Stiffness and reduced mobility
For example, a trigger point in your shoulder may cause pain in your neck or head β which is why many issues go unresolved without targeted work.
How trigger point therapy works
Trigger point therapy uses precise, sustained pressure to release tension in specific areas of muscle.
This helps:
Reduce pain at its source
Improve circulation
Restore normal muscle function
Break long-standing tension patterns
π Itβs not random β itβs targeted, intentional work
Find the source. Fix the pain.
What conditions can it help with?
Trigger point therapy is effective for:
Neck and shoulder pain
Lower back pain
Sciatica and hip pain
Headaches and tension headaches
Chronic tightness from stress or posture
What makes this different
Most massages focus on relaxing the body.
This focuses on: π finding the source of your pain π and working directly on it
No routines. No guesswork. Just focused work that gets results.
