TRIGGER POINT THERAPY IN USTER
Trigger points are not hardenings of the muscle, which often cause pain when touched and are perceived as tiny knots.
Hardening occurs when fine muscle fibers, known as sarcomeres, remain in the stiffened state in which the muscle is in when tensed and do not relax again.
A trigger point does not necessarily have to cause local pain, but can also be noticeable in other distant sensations in the body.

What are the effects of trigger point therapy?
Die Triggerpunkttherapie wirkt helfend beim Abtransport von Stoffwechselprodukten sowie der Verbesserung der Durchblutung.
Dabei sucht der Therapierende bei der Schmerzbehandlung gezielt nach dem am stärksten schmerzenden Punkt im belasteten Muskel. Dies kann häufig der Ort sein, an dem der Nerv in den Muskel eintritt.
Durch starken Druck oder kreisende Fingerbewegungen auf dem verhärteten Bereich des Muskels wird die Durchblutung gefördert. Ziel ist es, den Stoffwechsel des Muskels anzuregen und ihn zur Entspannung zu bringen.
Das Ergebnis sollte eine verbesserte Durchblutung des Muskels und eine Linderung der Schmerzen im betroffenen Bereich sein. Eine abschließende Massage des betroffenen Körperteils fördert die Entspannung weiter.
Obwohl die Triggerpunkttherapie häufig schmerzhaft sein kann, führt sie in der Regel zu einer Erleichterung ohne unerwünschte Nebenwirkungen.
For which complaints can trigger point therapy help?
Treatment can have a healing or supportive and pain-relieving effect on many complaints. Trigger point therapy can provide effective treatment for all these pains as well as postural problems and overloading. By releasing trigger points, the muscles can relax and move normally again. A healthy posture becomes possible again and pain can be avoided in the long term. Our experienced therapists at Origin can detect and treat trigger points through targeted massage and pressure treatment. Trigger point therapy can be particularly useful for the following points:
- Headaches, migraines
- dizziness
- Shoulder pain
- Neck pain
- back pain
- Knee pain
- Whiplash
- Chest pain (tightness)
- Golfer’s elbow or tennis elbow
- lumbago
- Achilles tendon pain
- Tendonitis
- osteoarthritis
- Tinnitus, ringing in the ears, sudden deafness
- Various chronic ailments
- Digestive problems
What is the process of trigger point therapy?
Before the actual massage, you will have an initial consultation with your therapist to discuss all relevant information about the treatment. Experience has shown that this conversation takes about 5-20 minutes.
Shortly before the treatment, you will have time to undress in privacy and position yourself on the couch.
Your treatment will be based on the initial anamnesis, and the therapist will always be available to answer your questions and comments.
Following the massage, further follow-up appointments can be arranged on request.
What is the difference between trigger point therapy and medical massage?
Medical massage and trigger point therapy differ in their objectives.
In trigger point massage, the focus is on a trigger point that triggers acute discomfort and pain. It is usually very painful, even if it leads to significant relief afterwards. Medical massage, on the other hand, has a wide range of applications and is primarily used to relax or loosen the muscles and promote blood circulation. Medical massage is also used more for chronic pain or conditions and is perceived as less painful.
