Trigger Point Therapy

" I have been going to KMD MASSAGE for the last few months, I regularly get a combination of Trigger Point & Rememdial treatments for a range of issues like an aching lower back, tight shoulders and hamstrings. The relief she has given me is amazing and I feel so much better. Karlee is very professional and full of knowledge.

If something is aching you should definetly give her a call"

What Is Trigger Point Therapy?

Trigger Point Therapy is the release of trigger points within your muscle fibres. A trigger point is a contraction of these muscle fibres and they exist when they are over stimulated and can't uncontract. They cause referral pain in other parts of your body for example a trigger point in your trapezius muscle can cause referral pain in your neck or temples.

Trigger points can cause you aches and pains, referred pain, muscle stiffness, irritability, weakness, nausea and dizziness. They are extremely painful when pressure is applied but are treated easily once the therapist has located them.
