Sciatica Therapy- Trigger Point Therapy Is Good In Sciatica Therapy
May 30th, 2009 . by adminAmong all the sciatica therapy that I have been through, trigger point therapy worked best.
Trigger point therapy is a form of self massage, to be highly effective for pain relief for many musculoskeletal problems, and especially for sciatica. Trigger points are small contractions in muscles that respond to counter pressure. They can tighten up your muscles, which in turn can entrap and impinge on surrounding nerves.
The book “The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook” is a good resource for eliminating trigger points related to sciatica. The book includes specific information on sciatic nerve compression, including illustrations of how the sciatic nerve can get compressed by surrounding muscles. The book also includes anatomy diagrams which show the location of trigger points to press that are often helpful for sciatic pain.
