Targeted Relief for Muscle Pain and Tension

If you’re experiencing back pain, stiffness, or nerve-related symptoms, trigger point therapy at ROCK Spine and Joint Centre could offer effective, drug-free relief. This hands-on technique targets specific muscle knots (trigger points) that may be contributing to your discomfort—sometimes even in areas far from the original source.

What Is Trigger Point Therapy?

Trigger points are tight bands of muscle fibres that can cause pain, tension, and referred symptoms like tingling or numbness. These may develop due to injury, stress, poor posture, or repetitive movement.

During treatment, your clinician applies focused pressure to release these points, break down muscle adhesions, and restore normal tissue function. This improves circulation, reduces local irritation, and relieves pain.

Conditions We Commonly Treat

Trigger point therapy can be used on its own or alongside chiropractic, physiotherapy, or massage care. It is commonly used for:

  • Back and neck pain

  • Sciatica

  • Migraines and cervicogenic headaches

  • Plantar fasciitis

  • Fibromyalgia

  • Sports injuries and post-surgical recovery

  • Tennis/golfer’s elbow

  • Osteoarthritis

What to Expect

  • Treatments are tailored to your needs and tolerance

  • Some soreness is possible after the first session but usually settles quickly

  • Several sessions may be recommended for lasting benefit

Experience Lasting Relief

Trigger point therapy is safe for most individuals and is particularly helpful in treating chronic muscle tension and referred pain.
