Trigger Point Treatment

Almost everyone has muscles that get stiff and sore, however for many it becomes chronic and even a way of life. Many times the cause is muscle knots or myofascial trigger points, which are hyperirritable spots in muscles, tendons or ligaments. Research has found that properly applied pressure massage can deactivate these pain-causing trigger points, sometimes giving you immediate pain relief, increase flexibility and improved performance.

How The FENIX Works:

Pressure massage techniques applied with The FENIX changes the consistency of the connective tissue in your muscles and tendons.

• Allowing greater muscle blood flow, increasing oxygen and nutrient uptake, as well as improving removal of metabolic waste.
  
• This increases the energy production of the muscle and helps the taut muscle band to relax, leading to increased circulation and the beginning of the natural healing process.
  
• The problematic muscle is now ready to stretch.
  
• Research has shown that pressure massage techniques coupled with a 60 second sustained stretch afterwards, as with The FENIX Rehab System, allows you to restore normal muscle and tendon function and relieve pain.
