Trigger Point Self-Treatment System from Healthy Back Institute's Jesse Cannone & Steve Hefferon: In treating your own Trigger Points with the Healthy Back Institute's Trigger Point Self-Treatment System, warns Steve Hefferon, one must be care of multiplying trigger points. This can also happen in deep tissue massage, which can bring out long dormant trigger points or create new ones from working on others.
But if you can't afford to hire a trigger point specialist or just don't want to have someone else handling that, Jesse Cannone believes their system is very much up to the task of working your trigger points when you are in relaxed position, which is key to the process.
About Trigger Points:
Trigger points cause muscles and tissues to tighten and shorten. These hyper-irritated hardened masses cause so much pain and tenderness that you alter the way you move, sit or stand to instinctively protect yourself. By limiting the use of the painful muscle, the muscle begins to weaken.
Your altered patterns of movement put abnormal stress on your muscles, ligaments and joints. This leads to strength and flexibility imbalances in your muscles as well as postural dysfunctions throughout your body.
This "use-abuse-disuse" scenario creates more trigger points in other areas and a vicious cycle begins. Before you know it, you’ve developed clusters of active and latent trigger points. You’ve also given up doing the things you love to do because it simply hurts too much.
Here at the Healthy Back Institute, we've always known trigger points are a huge factor in creating pain and tenderness. However, there are very few qualified and trained trigger point therapists out there. And although there are some good self-treatment books available, most leave a lot for the patient to "figure out" on their own. Through her work with President Kennedy and many, many other back pain sufferers, Dr. Travell discovered that deep manual pressure applied to trigger points had a dramatic therapeutic effect by quickly eliminating pain.
The work she developed with her colleagues evolved into what is known today as Trigger Point Therapy. Research shows that sustained manual trigger point therapy is by far the most effective means of getting rid of chronic myofascial (muscle and tissue) pain.
But trotting off to a doctor, massage therapist, physical therapist, chiropractor or other clinician repeatedly to get rid of all your trigger points can get pretty expensive. Not to mention all the time those visits consume. And that’s if you are lucky enough to find a well-trained trigger point specialist to begin with.
That's why we are excited to offer you the Trigger Point Self-Treatment System. In fact, I can guarantee it's the most effective and easy to use self-care system around.
