Trigger Point Myotherapy is a therapeutic discipline and technique used for
the relief of myofascial (myo=muscle: fascial=connective tissue) pain and
dysfunction. It is a modality resulting from the lifelong medical careers of
Drs. Janet Travell and David Simons. Trigger Point Myotherapy is recognized by
the American Academy of Pain Management as a modality for the treatment of
myofascial pain and dysfunction.
The goal of myotherapy treatment is the recovery from or a significant
reduction in, myofascial pain. This goal is achieved through a systematized and
comprehensive approach using a variety of soft tissue manipulation techniques.
Most patients with myofascial pain and dysfunction see excellent results in
the return of mobility, function, and reduction of pain after treatment. Those
patients with acute conditions due to accidents, or sports and repetitive motion
injuries see dramatic results and quick return to their normal daily and
professional activities.
