Trigger Point Myotherapy
is a non-invasive therapeutic modality for the relief and control
of muscle and connective tissue pain. This hands-on approach is
based on the lifelong medical research of Dr. Janet Travell and
David Simons. These pioneers discovered the relationship between
chronic pain and the source – trigger points. Trigger Points
are highly irritable spots in a muscle that contribute critically
to pain. When correct pressure is applied to these painful areas
the muscle can be "detrigged", bringing relief. Most patients
with myofascial pain and dysfunction see excellent results, and
a quick return to their normal daily and professional activities.

profoundly deep. Not only is she an excellent massage practitioner
technically, but she has a true healing energy. Every time I have
had work done from her, I feel a bit transformed."
