Trigger points are painful areas of muscle that are tender and may feel like tight bands or knots when pressed. Sometimes when pressed they can cause a referred pain down the spine or extremity. Trigger points are overreactive muscles that can come from stress, repetitive motion, or when an injury has occurred to the area. When they cannot be relieved on their own, trigger point injections can help. Our nurse practitioner will determine which product to use in order to disperse your trigger points.
