FENIX Rehab Systems are the most effective self-care products on the market for your pain-causing myofascial trigger points.

To effectively relieve the pain from trigger points or muscle knots, FENIX offers trigger point therapy tools.

According to the renowned pain researchers Melzack and Wall, "myofascial trigger points" (muscles knots) are often the major factor in the cause and maintenance of all chronic pain."

The famous author and researcher into myofascial trigger points David G. Simons M.D. has said, "There is no substitute for learning to control your own musculoskeletal pain. Treating myofascial trigger points yourself addresses the source of common pain and is not just away of temporarily relieving it."

Trigger Point Therapy
Your chronic pain may be caused by tender spots in muscles, tendons, and ligaments known as myofascial trigger points. Trigger points commonly called "muscle knots" cause local pain and stiffness, as well as create referral pain in other areas of your body.

Trigger points cause pain in one region e.g. recurrent back pain or shoulder-arm pain after a game of golf or yard work, or it can become generalized throughout your body (fibromyalgia) causing chronic pain and fatigue for years.

The respected pain researchers Melzack and Wall (1988) have reported in their studies that myofascial trigger points are key elements in all chronic pain. Furthermore, they found that myofascial trigger points are often the main factor in maintaining your chronic pain.

Properly applied pressure massage, or trigger point therapy, can deactivate these trigger points.
