Fdip169: Massaging the Trigger Points

Published: Jan. 9, 2009, 5 a.m.

Pain is the body\u2019s way of telling us that something is wrong, and when we ignore those messages we are risking further and more permanent injury.\xa0 \nMyofascial trigger point pain syndrome is problematic because of the nature of referred pain, where a defect in the muscle can cause soreness elsewhere in the body.\xa0 To resolve this kind of pain, you have to identify its true source, and apply massage as a preventive measure to overcome it.\xa0 It takes patience and consistency to perform the stretches, exercises and massage that will help you to overcome trigger point associated pain, and allow you to run upon the open road, in comfort.\nShow Links:Fdip Blog of the Week: \u201cPassion and Pain\u201d was by Lance Larson.
