Relaxes muscles & connective tissue

With myofascial trigger point therapy, so-called myofascial trigger points, in the muscle are treated. Myofascial trigger points are painful, tense areas in a person's muscle. They affect both the muscle and the fascia. Trigger points are one of the most common causes of chronic musculoskeletal pain - so-called myofascial pain. They can occur anywhere on the body. Professional trigger point therapy relieves the tension and thus also the pain in the long term.

Trigger point therapy is based on certain pressure points in the body, which can be responsible for a wide variety of pain. Due to the frequent radiation of these pain points, the pain felt can also spread to other regions of the body. Often chronic pain can be traced back to these trigger points. Therefore, it is important to treat these pain points with trigger point therapy. Pain can be triggered by the treatment of these pain points, but these are within normal tolerable limits and contribute in the therapy to the improvement of chronic complaints.

Research into muscle pain dates back to the distant past. However, the muscular system as the main trigger of pain was not considered for a long time. Especially in the last 100 years, people in this field made considerable progress in understanding muscular pain and its cause. Special attention has been paid to the "Swiss Approach to Trigger Point Therapy" by the Swiss physician Dr. med. Beat Dejung, who, together with a group of physiotherapists, developed the systematic manual trigger point therapy on which our offered treatments are based. With manual trigger point therapy, in addition to the so-called myofascial trigger points, the connective tissue and fascia are also treated.
