What causes them? And of course, what is The Answer to resolving them? <p> Trigger points are the small, sensitive knots or nodules that often form in injured or stressed muscle tissue. These injuries or stressors can be caused by any number of factors: accidents, overuse, repetitive movement, tension, poor posture, bad work station design, etc. These knots occur when individual muscle fibers are over-stimulated and self-perpetuating until they are unable to release their contracted state. This state of continuous contraction reduces blood flow to the area, resulting in a diminished supply of oxygen and a build up of metabolic waste. The contracted area (or trigger point) in the muscle fiber becomes irritated and reacts by sending out pain signals which also serves to perpetuate the spasm. It's a vicious cycle of pain and inflammation. <p> Trigger points can deactivate or release on their own, but often they remain in either an active state or a latent state for years unless treated. In the active state they cause continual pain. In the latent state the pain subsides, but the trigger point remains and is vulnerable to being reactivated. <p> There are several types of therapy used to treat trigger points including: deep stroking massage, trigger point injection, ischemic compression, and "spray and stretch". We'll discuss deep stroking massage here since it is the safest most effective method. Professional massage by a trigger point therapist is probably the best method of trigger point treatment, but self massage offers many benefits: </font></td> </tr> <tr> <td><img src="images/hips.jpg" height="351" width="141" border="2"></td> <td valign="top"><font face="Arial, Helvetica" size="-1"> <ul> <li>You get treatment whenever you need it.<p> <li>You don't need to wait for an appointment.<p> <li>Trigger points are small, ranging in size from the head of a pin to a pea, and can be difficult for other people to find. Yet trigger points are very sensitive and hurt when you press on them. This often makes it easier for you to locate your own trigger points.<p> <li>Trigger point massage hurts. It's a "good" hurt, but you're the only one that knows exactly where and how much pressure to apply. It's nice if you're the one in control.<p> <li>Self massage is free, and an excellent way to help maintain a stress free state between treatments from your chiropractor, massage therapist or other practitioner of your choice. </ul> </font></td> </tr> <tr><td colspan="2"><font face="Arial, Helvetica" size="-1"> Chiropractors and physical therapists often recommend using a tennis ball, trapped between a wall and your back, to massage or release trigger points in your hips or buttocks that you can't reach.
