What are the benefits of muscle trigger point therapy With advancement in allopathic medical science, ever new treatments and drugs are being introduced in the market, but most of these drugs and treatments have harmful side effects. This is the reason that people are looking towards the time tested systems of medicine like the Chinese system of medicine and the Indian Ayurveda among others. These methods are time tested and if administered by qualified and skilled physicians have absolutely no side effects. One of the methods of Chinese medicine is acupuncture and muscle trigger point therapyis a leaf out of the ancient book of acupuncture because hair thin needles are used in this method as well. Let us look at the benefits of this method of treatment. Benefits of trigger point therapy Trigger point therapy has many advantages. It not only works well for easing tension in the muscles and headaches, but it can also increase flexibility and range of motion. It has been effective for patients in enhancing posture and reducing discomfort. The lack of medication appeals to most people who believe in traditional medicine. The best part is that they can take treatment at any time of the day without worrying about driving or feeling any adverse effects. It also lessens, and in some cases altogether eliminates, the need for painkillers and narcotics. Most of the time, trigger point therapy is painless. Although certain massage therapies can leave you uncomfortable and dry needling is a minimally invasive procedure, the pain relief is significant and well worth the minor discomfort. The other good benefit of muscle trigger point therapy is that it can be used in the form of trigger point massage. In addition to arthritis, fibromyalgia, and musculoskeletal pain, trigger point therapy has also been effective in treating sciatica, herniated discs, TMJ dysfunction, Parkinson's disease, and cancer-related pain. These are the reasons why this method of treatment is becoming very popular not just in Asia, but even in Western countries, and that too at an affordable rate.
