Trigger point therapy for your shoulder on vimeo

The object is to eliminate pain and to reeducate the muscles into pain-free habits. For example, a pain in the ankle may be the result of a trigger point in the knee which is putting pressure on the nerves of the ankle as they travel up the leg. This helps the body to undergo soft tissue release, allowing for increased blood flow, a reduction in muscle spasm, and the break-up of scar tissue.
