About
"Myofascial trigger points are unbelievably common yet commonly overlooked."
— David G. Simons, MD Pioneer, researcher and leading expert in the field of pain management
“Myofascial trigger points are among the most common, yet poorly recognized and inadequately managed, cause of musculoskeletal pain seen in the medical practice” --Janet Travell 1976 White House physician to John F. Kennedy and First Author of Myofascial Pain and Dysfunction The Trigger Point Manual
ELIMINATE THE CAUSE OF YOUR PAIN!!! 724-494-1468
Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy by a Nationally Certified Myofascial Trigger Point Therapist with over 13 years experience helping people recover from injuries and eliminate pain.
Able to bill Auto insurance after an accident. NationWide and Progressive Auto have chosen to deny or severely limit your choice to have medical massage in Pennsylvania, switch before you are in an accident! I am now able to bill CHAMPVA and some Workers Compensation.
Reduce or even eliminate the need for PAIN medications or delay or even avoid SURGERY.
Everyone has trigger points; the question is to what degree. If you have lingering pain, recurring headaches, tightness, or restriction of certain movements, you’re probably experiencing the effects of trigger points.
Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy (MTPT) is recognized by the American Academy of Pain Management as an effective treatment of myofascial pain and dysfunction.
Pain medications are harmful to the body if taken on a regular basis. Long term use will damage your liver and kidneys!
Almost ALL COMMON AND CHRONIC HEADACHES and MANY MIGRAINES are caused by the activation of trigger points and can be ELIMINATED or greatly reduced in frequency.
Jaw pain and TMJD can often be reduced in a treatment or two. Carpal Tunnel type pain, arm numbness and pain, Thoracic Outlet Syndrome and other repetitive motion related pain, frozen shoulder and shoulder pain, "bad knees", tendonitis, Plantar Fasciitis, heal pain, in many cases there is a strong myofascial (muscle) component to the condition.
A few treatments and some homework on your part and you can stop worrying about surgery or how long your Liver will last with so many pain meds. You should be able to feel the difference in a treatment or two!
So many pain issues can be helped with Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy!
I offer Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy, Medical Massage and other pain management modalities in addition to massage. Specialties include non-invasive treatment for:
* Injuries recently sustained in Auto Accidents. Whiplash is very common and can get worse in time if not addressed properly. (Medical Massage is covered by most auto insurance.)
* Headaches, Migraines TMJ, chronic or frequent tension headaches, neck stiffness
* Heel and foot pain, calf cramps, Plantar Fasciitis, knee pain, avoid or delay knee surgery
* Carpal Tunnel and other arm pain and numbness, Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, tennis elbow, golfers elbow, trigger finger, texter's thumb, aching and heaviness of the arms
* Back, neck and shoulder pain and dysfunction, frozen shoulder and restricted range of motion
A lot of pain is muscular in origin, don't just keep taking pain meds, treat the cause of the problem. Treatments can often reduce or eliminate the need for medications or even surgery.
Relieve MIGRAINE AND HEADACHE pain, many times RIGHT THERE, RIGHT NOW, DURING THE TREATMENT!
Ease medication dependence “OVER THE COUNTER” OR PRESCRIPTION.
Enhance immunity by stimulating lymph flow—the body's natural defense system.
Exercise and stretch weak, tight, or atrophied muscles.
Help athletes and Weekend Warriors of any level increase performance by increasing Range of Motion. Also prepare for, and recover from, strenuous workouts.
Improve the condition of the body's largest organ—the skin.
Increase joint flexibility.
Alleviate low-back pain and improve range of motion.
Lessen depression and anxiety.
Promote tissue regeneration, reducing scar tissue and stretch marks.
Increase blood flow to bring oxygen and nutrients into tissues and vital organs, improving circulation.
Reduce postsurgery adhesions and swelling.
Reduce spasms and cramping by lengthening the muscles to normal ROM.
Relax and soften injured, tired, and overused muscles.
Release endorphins that work as the body's natural painkiller.

Trigger points cause most common pain! You have trigger points, no question, even if they are not causing pain right now. If you are taking medications for pain, if you are hurting most every day, if you hurt yourself often, or suffer from frequent headaches, neck pain, shoulder pain, computer or work related pain, have carpal tunnel, tennis elbow, hip or leg pain or most anything else, you have trigger points! The doc just give you pills for without knowing the CAUSE or knowing how to eliminate the pain any other way till your liver and kidney sare damaged!"Myofascial trigger points are unbelievably common yet commonly overlooked."
