Trigger Point or Myotherapy massage at the marbella massage centre
Trigger Point therapy or as it is also called Myotherapy is used when the patient is experiencing tight areas with muscles, these tight areas may be caused by an injury or by overuse of the muscle. The trigger point of the muscle is the actual part of the muscle that is tense and this then causes pain in another par of the body.
One of the most common trigger points is the back or neck that then causes headaches. The trigger point massage uses alternative cyles of pressure and release on the trigger point to releax the area causing the pain.
Often the patient will actively participate in the massage by using deep breathing techniques as well as helping the therapist pinpoint the most painful area that needs to be massaged. After just one trigger point massage the patient can often experience a huge decrease in pain as the massage will have helped eliminate toxins from the muscles and also release endorphins which have the effect of energising the body.
