TRIGGER POINT THERAPY
A trigger point is a hyper-irritable spot that is painful when compressed. There are two kinds of trigger points, active and latent. Active trigger points refer pain to another area of the body. Latent trigger points only exhibit pain when compressed and do not refer pain. Both types of trigger points indicate dysfunction. Ischemic compression and deep tissue massage
