Chemistry of a Knot Muscle knots , aka Trigger Points , can be felt under the skin . They may be tender when touched or cause shortening of a muscle . The shortening may then cause limitation in the range of motion of the affected area , for example , in neck rotation . Trigger points may even irritate the nerves around them causing “ referred pain ”, or pain that is felt in another part of the body when the trigger point is touched .
How Does Trigger Point Therapy Work ? Trigger Point Therapy involves the process of inserting small needles directly into the patient ' s trigger point or pain site area , injecting a natural plant based saline solution . This saline injection helps to break up the knot , and the pain is alleviated . It essentially loosens muscle knots allowing improved blood flow to the chronically spasmodic areas . As a result , the areas begin to heal . As soon as the knots are relieved , there is often an immediate and remarkable reduction in pain , soreness , and discomfort , as well as the beginning of long-term relief .
Trigger Point Therapy is used to treat many areas of the body , including :
Ÿ Shoulder Pain
Ÿ Tennis Elbow
Ÿ Muscular Chest Wall Pain
Ÿ Low Back Pain
Ÿ Sciatica
Ÿ Knee Pain
Ÿ Ankle Pain Ÿ Trigger Point Therapy can also be used to treat fibromyalgia and tension headaches . The technique is also used to alleviate myofascial pain syndrome ( chronic pain involving tissue that surrounds muscle such as muscle strain and chronic joint sprain ) that does not respond to other treatments .

Two years ago I was suffering from a frozen shoulder ; I had little range of motion and was in constant pain . I had been going to physical therapy for over three months with little progress when I decided to give Trigger Therapy a try . It proved to be the turning point in my recovery . After my first treatment I was feeling less pain , and within a month my range of motion had improved dramatically . Trigger Therapy allowed me to be more aggressive with my stretching and Physical Therapy exercises . I credit Trigger Therapy for helping me regain full range of motion of my shoulder . -Donna Woyevodsky
I am a very active person , and Trigger Point Therapy allows me to continue with the physical demands of my lifestyle . Without it , I would have difficulty doing the things I love most , such as playing hockey and playing the guitar with my band . I have various over-use injuries in my body , and Trigger Therapy releases the tightness giving me full range of motion . Trigger Point Therapy combined with chiropractic care from Dr . Donna Brown keeps me feeling good by living pain-free and enjoying everything I love ! – George Voigt
I have struggled with chronic back and shoulder pain for quite some time . Although traditional methods like chiropractic care and physical therapy helped , it did not alleviate the knot pain in my muscles . The Trigger Point injections helped to break up the knots allowing my muscles to relax and improve the level of pain in those areas . Over time the pain in my back , neck , and shoulder all decreased . – Janet Lang
