Treating pain where it originates!

Manual trigger point therapy combines mechanical, reflex, biochemical, energetic, functional, cognitive-emotional, and behaviorally effective phenomena. As such, it influences not only peripheral nociceptive pain, but also intervenes in the body’s pain-processing and transmission mechanisms.

Here you will learn:

a systematic, manual-therapeutic approach to recognize and deactivate the potential of trigger points to cause pain and dysfunction
how to treat the accompanying fascial disorders
and how to prevent recurrences.

Key Features:

Clinical background of myofascial pain and dysfunction
Muscles, trigger points, and pain patterns at a glance
Neuromuscular entrapments shown in detail
Screening tests und pain guides for all common clinical patterns
Manual treatment of trigger points and fasciae
