During the treatment, our chiropractor will focus the treatment on these areas to release them. In other words, the treatment revolves around loosening up the soft tissues in areas where it's tight. Ultimately, the treatment is designed to reduce your pain. and make movement easier.

How long trigger point therapy takes to work varies from patient to patient. Some patients will notice an instant change in their pain after our chiropractor completes the trigger point release massage.
