Have you ever felt a palpable nodule in your neck, shoulder or upper back area? The trigger point/knots generally are tender to touch and pain radiates when they are pushed.
TPIs is another approach to treating pain when your muscles are painful and are in knots (trigger points).
The “trigger point”/knots” occur when the muscles have been overused, stretched or injured. TPIs treats the painful muscle areas by injection a small amount of a local anesthetic (numbing solution) directly into the painful area. The local anesthetic will numb the injected areas and decrease the muscle spasm, thus relieving the pain almost immediately. Common areas of “trigger points/knots” are the muscles in the back – trapezius, rhomboid and shoulders. These areas of “trigger points/knots”can cause headaches, shoulder and neck pain.
CONDITIONS TREATED BY TPIs:
- Myofascial pain
- Poor posture
- Overuse injury
- Headaches
- Tension from Stress
