Myofascial Trigger Point [my-o-fash-el • trig-gr •  point] n.

Myofascial Trigger Points are hyper-irritable areas of muscle that can become activated by trauma or repetitive motion, causing contracted knots in the muscle. They are a common cause of pain. Activated trigger points can create local tenderness and refer pain.

Many find their unexplained pain can be from activated trigger points. Pain radiates from these points of local tenderness to broader areas, sometimes far from the trigger point itself (known as ‘referred pain’).

There are scientifically identified referred pain patterns, which allow one to associate pain in one location with specific trigger points.

Activated Myofascial Trigger Points are treatable. You have the power to end pain from activated trigger points.
