Myofascial Pain Relief with Expert Physiotherapy in the Comfort of Your Home

What Are Trigger Points?

Trigger points, also known as myofascial trigger points, are hyperirritable spots in a tight band of skeletal muscle or fascia. They are commonly felt as “knots” and can cause localized pain or referred pain to other areas of the body. Left untreated, they may lead to chronic muscle dysfunction, postural imbalances, and restricted mobility.

What Causes Trigger Points?

Trigger points develop due to chronic muscle overload, repetitive strain, or postural imbalances. Common causes include:

🪑 Poor posture (e.g., slouching, forward head)
💻 Desk work or prolonged computer/mobile usage
🔁 Repetitive motion (e.g., lifting, typing)
💢 Acute injuries or whiplash
😰 Stress and emotional tension
💤 Lack of sleep and dehydration
🏋️ Overtraining or improper exercise technique

Symptoms of Trigger Point Pain

Trigger point symptoms often mimic nerve or joint issues, leading to misdiagnosis. They can affect multiple regions:

⚡ Deep, aching muscle pain
🌀 Referred pain (e.g., shoulder pain from neck trigger points)
🔒 Muscle stiffness and tightness
🧱 Reduced range of motion
❄️ Tingling or numbness without neurological cause
💣 Tender “knots” that hurt on pressure
😣 Tension headaches and jaw pain (TMJ)
📉 Weakness without atrophy
