There are a great many trigger points, which can be used quite successfully to treat a variety of conditions. In this short practical guide, we are going to focus upon the top ten essential trigger points, trigger points which can be used in everyday life by the majority of people. Some of the deeper trigger points, seen deep inside the thigh and pelvis, can be a little hard to reach but for most people, with some effort, they should be either able to treat themselves or if necessary a friend or family member should be able to treat them effectively, through manipulation of the relevant trigger points.

Can we Really Treat Ourselves?

Trigger points are atypically deployed by physical therapists, osteopaths, naturopaths and masseurs. So considering all of these people are highly qualified, and of course they are standing over the patient, where they can apply considerable force, is there any point in trying to treat ourselves?
Well, obviously we cannot expect the same result, while working on ourselves, than that which we might receive if we go to a professional therapist. However, just because the result will be less effective, does not mean that we cannot give it a go. Also, treating oneself, in no way diminishes the role of the therapist. Rather, it makes the role of the therapist more meaningful, because a patient, who takes an active interest in their treatment and makes an effort to assist the healing process, while in the comfort of their own home, is actually making the healing effort more effective and is more likely to return to a therapist for further assistance.

So if you are sick of having persistent aches and pains and want to do something proactive about it, then read this book today!

Love this book!

I am a massage therapist who is a firm believer in trigger point therapy and is benefits! I highly recommend seeking professional advice before applying your own trigger point therapy at home, otherwise you may worsen your condition. A therapist with the right education (usually a neuromuscular therapist) can guide you through trigger point release as well as recommendations for at home therapy application. Remember, never take someone else's word for it unless they have performed your bodywork and are familiar with your case. This method is only truly effective when applied safely and under direct care of a therapist. Best of luck and may you get the relief you deserve!

To the point, easy read!

Quick read and to the point with illustrations for self application. The author clearly lists the top pain triggers with cause and effects and doesn’t drown you in medical terminology.

It's not very well-written, which makes it hard to understand what he's describing sometimes. And somebody along the process should have checked all the "affect/effect" instances. There is some interesting information here, though, but I think it might be better to skip this one and start with something a little more thorough.
