 The technique involves applying short, repeated massage strokes to trigger point, places in the muscle tissue wherelack of oxygen causes referred pain. These points are easily located by general readers and create pain throughout the body in predictable patterns characteristic to each muscle, producing discomfort ranging from mild to severe. The stimulation of the point causes an increase in the oxygen level in the area and produces often instant relief. The first edition of The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook has made a huge impact in the use of this dynamic technique. This is the first major revision of the overnight classic-a complete update that includes new information specifically for massage professionals as well as a detailed discussion of systematic muscle relaxation techniques that can reinforce the therapeutic power of trigger point work. IMPORTANT NOTE: To fully be able to achieve results with this workbook, we highly recommend that you purchase a massage tool to aid you. The Thera Cane is by far the most versatile tool there is when working with trigger points. The Trigger Pointer is also a great tool for using on hands and feet. We offer the Thera Cane and the Workbook in a convienient, money saving package. VIEW PACKAGE.
