Understanding Trigger Points
Trigger points are tight bands of muscle fiber that form when muscles don't fully relax. They can cause local pain and also 'refer' pain to seemingly unrelated areas — a neck trigger point might cause headaches, for example.
The Treatment Process
Your masseur locates trigger points through palpation and applies sustained, gradually increasing pressure until the knot releases. This may be combined with stretching and heat application.
Common Trigger Point Patterns in Men
Men commonly develop trigger points in the upper trapezius (causing headaches), infraspinatus (causing shoulder pain), quadratus lumborum (causing lower back pain), and piriformis (causing sciatica-like symptoms).
Results and Recovery
Many clients experience significant relief after a single session, though chronic patterns typically require 4-6 treatments. Drinking water and gentle stretching post-session maximizes results.
