Trigger Point Therapy

Action

It's time to get up and move, remember the body can tell the mind to do incredible things the mind can tell the body to do horrible things. You no longer have to tolerate what you accept. If you can brush your teeth every day you can take care of your body everyday. It's plain and simple.

Massage has been proven to create pliability within the muscles of the body. This technique can be accomplished in a multitude of ways, the Trigger Point Performance tools allow you to do this in the most efficient effective manner. If you have to rely on someone to do something you may never get it done. Empower yourself by taking care of your self!

Muscular Elasticity

Elasticity is measured by the muscle's ability to rebound to its natural state.

Muscular elasticity is crucial to sustain a top level of performance without the factors of fatigue and injury. The Trigger Point TP Massage Ball, TP Footballer and TP Quadballer work to improve your body's performance by increasing the elasticity within the muscles, allowing them to rebound to their natural state. This is achieved through increased blood flow, elevated oxygen use, and reduction of scar tissue and muscle adhesions.

An inelastic muscle is like a rope. The muscle loses its ability to lengthen and rebound. In many cases, the "rope-like" muscle has knots in it as well. You can't stretch a knot out of a rope and you can't stretch a knot out from a muscle.

Myofacial Compression Techniques

Myofascial Compression Techniques (MCT) is Trigger Point Performance Therapy's revolutionary form of self myofascial release that systematically restores tissue elasticity, fluidity, and function resulting in pain reduction, injury prevention, and performance enhancement.

MCT is defined by building compression into the targeted muscle with a TP device. Once compressed, the targeted muscle and limb is taken through a range of motion. Once this is defined, we then take the distal limb through its own pattern of movement replicating everyday functions. The compressed muscle tissue will produce an inhibitory response in the muscle spindle while also addressing associated myofascial dysfunctions such as trigger points, adhesions, and other muscular challenges. This process also opens up neurological pathways allowing for greater muscular proprioception. Deep nasal breathes work to relax the muscle while oxygenating the blood. MCT also changes the muscle's viscosity allowing for more fluid movement.
