Trigger Point Injection

Our Trigger Point Injection Service

Actively Offered At Achieve Wellness Medical

Achieve Wellness Medical Center uses Trigger Point Injections as a treatment for muscle pain and tension. Trigger points are small, tender knots that form in muscles and can cause pain and discomfort. During a Trigger Point Injection, a small amount of anesthetic is injected directly into the trigger point, which can help to relieve muscle pain and tension. The procedure is typically quick and relatively painless, and many patients experience immediate relief from their muscle pain and tension. Trigger Point Injections may be used as a standalone treatment or in combination with other therapies, such as physical therapy or massage, to help patients achieve optimal wellness.

Trigger points are small, tender knots that form in muscles and can cause pain and discomfort. They are often described as feeling like a pea under the skin. Trigger points can develop in any muscle in the body, but they are most commonly found in the neck, shoulders, and back.

Trigger points can be caused by a variety of factors, including muscle overuse, injury, or stress. When a trigger point is present, it can cause pain in the muscle as well as in other areas of the body, as the pain can radiate from the trigger point to other areas. Trigger points can also cause muscle weakness and a decreased range of motion.

The injection is typically given using a very fine needle and is typically quick and relatively painless. The goal of a Trigger Point Injection is to relieve muscle pain and tension by relaxing the muscle and breaking up the trigger point. Trigger Point Injections may be used as a standalone treatment or in combination with our other treatments, such as physical therapy, to help achieve optimal wellness.
