Trigger Points in Ozark, MO with Ashford Neuromuscular

The symptoms of muscular dysfunction can be misleading. Ashford Neuromuscular is your guide to feeling and functioning better. Investigating mechanical soft tissue dysfunction and addressing hard to find trigger points is the bread and butter of neuromuscular therapy.

A trigger point is a nodule of muscle that has become stuck in a state of contraction, often characterized as a “knot”. These give rise to pain patterns and other symptoms that relate to their source indirectly. A trigger point in the front of the neck for example, often creates a headache that lands behind the eye. By filtering your experience through our knowledge of these patterns, and by following physical assessment clues, we work to go straight to the root cause of your pain, bringing lasting relief. While there is discomfort associated with releasing trigger points, the process should not be painful. If your discomfort is more than a four out of ten, the effectiveness of the therapy is in jeopardy! Communicate with your therapist to maintain appropriate pressure parameters for the best results.

Our mission is to provide compassionate, effective care that improves quality of life. Every session is designed to relieve pain, increase mobility, and enhance overall function. Don’t let discomfort or restricted movement limit your daily activities—schedule a session with us today!
