Pain Relief with Trigger Point Self Help By Valerie DeLaune L.Ac. Trigger points can refer pain to other areas of the
body, in addition to referring pain locally. Pain Relief With Trigger Point
Self-Help teaches readers where to search for trigger points, how to treat them
by applying pressure and doing stretches, and how to prevent trigger points from
forming by making simple lifestyle changes, practicing proper body mechanics,
and addressing nutritional deficiencies and other pertinent medical issues.
Although Pain Relief With Trigger Point Self-Help was written for any person who
wants to successfully treat their own pain, it is also an invaluable reference
for any kind of health care provider whose patients suffer from either chronic
or acute pain. |
