What are trigger points<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Trigger points are not a disease of the muscles, but an expression of an incoordinated muscle activity and thus a dysfunction.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A trigger point always arises due to a muscular imbalance, e.g. by contracted, overstretched or overprogrammed muscles, tendons, ligaments, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Trigger points are activated by acute overloads, fatigue due to overexertion, trauma, incorrect posture or hypothermia. Indirectly, a trigger point can be activated by organ diseases, joint diseases, emotional stress or other trigger points.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The trigger point therapy was developed by Simon and Travell in 1960.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Effect of trigger point therapy<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The aim of trigger point therapy is the elimination of so-called “myofascial trigger points”. A trigger point is a muscle region with locally increased muscle tension in skeletal muscle. Trigger points have an increased pressure sensitivity, at the same time radiation can emanate from there. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Around 80 to 90% of pain syndromes are due to corresponding muscles.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

  • Achillodynia<\/span><\/li>\n

  • Pseudoradicular pain syndromes<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Ascending Cause – Sequence – Chains<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Fibromyalgia<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Within the trigger point therapy, the pain points are systematically and effectively reduced. The therapeutic effect is immediately noticeable. After the complete dissolution of a trigger point, the pain disappears and a possible trigger. previous movement restriction.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
