“Acupressure and Trigger Point Therapy: A Home Stress & Pain Reduction System”
Trigger points lead to an increase in muscle stiffness and tenderness and a decrease in range-of-motion. In addition, the discomfort from Trigger points can radiate (called referral pain.) Trigger points can cause symptoms not normally associated with muscular symptoms, such as sweating, ringing in the ears, dizziness, urinary frequency, buckling knees, and tearing of the eyes.
Christopher Maslowski, L.Ac., Associate Acupuncturist of SOPHIA Natural Health Center in Brookfield, will explain what Trigger points are, how to locate them, and how to relieve them quickly and easily. Acupressure and Trigger Point Therapy can help relieve a variety of ailments including fibromyalgia, osteo-arthritis, neck and low back pain and PMS. Learn the importance of the relationship between stress, Trigger points and your overall health!
