Trigger Points Study Chart

Trigger points are described as being hyperirritable spots within muscles where tenderness and pain can be felt if compressed. The trigger point theory suggests that most unexplained pain in the human body radiates from these trigger points, and that therapy should be used to address these trigger points. Many massage therapists and chiropractors find the model useful in practice; however this theory is not accepted in the medical community at large, mainly due to disagreement over what a trigger point actually is. Now, you can get a great idea for where trigger points are located by investing in this great chart! Wonderful illustrated diagrams are distinctly and concisely labeled for ease in identifying the different trigger points. We recommend this chart for massage therapy and chiropractors in need of a quick reference guide.
