Men
and women involved in sports and fitness training are
more
prone to muscle and joint injury. Overuse, strain, lack
of exercise,
poor posture and sleeping positions, emotional stress
and trauma
can cause muscles to contract and twist, the affected
area becomes
hard and tender to touch, this is called a trigger point.
Pressing on
this area causes pain in that region or some other part
of the body.
Tender trigger points can
be treated before therapeutic and sports
massage to rapidly release painful muscle spasm and
facilitate less
resistance to soft tissue manipulations. With regular
treatment the
hardened (fibrotic) tissue, will become softer and
allow more
freedom of movement.
Multilase® therapy is
being used more and more in conjunction
with sports and manipulative therapies including chiropractic.
