Overview

What Are Trigger Point Injections?

Trigger points are tight, painful knots that form in muscles when they don't relax properly. These knots can cause localized pain and also refer pain to other areas of the body. Trigger point injections deliver medication directly into these knots to release tension, reduce inflammation, and provide rapid relief.

The procedure is quick, typically taking only a few minutes, and can be combined with chiropractic adjustments and massage therapy for comprehensive pain management.

Targeted Pain Relief

Release Stubborn Muscle Knots

Trigger points are hyperirritable spots in muscle tissue that can cause both local pain and referred pain in distant areas of the body. These painful knots often don't respond to massage or stretching alone, which is where trigger point injections provide targeted relief.

Our precise injection technique delivers medication directly into the trigger point, causing it to relax and release. Most patients experience immediate pain relief during the procedure, with continued improvement over the following days as inflammation decreases.

  • Precise needle placement
  • Local anesthetic for comfort
  • Multiple trigger points per session

Got Questions?

Are trigger point injections painful in [City]?
Most patients experience only mild discomfort during trigger point injections. You may feel a brief pinch when the needle enters and a sensation when the trigger point is reached—this is actually a sign the correct spot has been targeted. Our [City] practitioners use thin needles and precise techniques to minimize discomfort. Many patients say the relief is worth any momentary discomfort.
How long do trigger point injections last?
Relief from trigger point injections can last anywhere from several weeks to several months, depending on the underlying cause of your muscle tension. Some patients experience permanent relief after a series of injections, while others benefit from periodic maintenance treatments. We also address contributing factors like posture and stress to extend the benefits.
What is injected during trigger point therapy?
Trigger point injections typically contain a local anesthetic (like lidocaine) to provide immediate pain relief, sometimes combined with a small amount of corticosteroid to reduce inflammation. In some cases, we perform 'dry needling' where no medication is injected—the needle itself helps break up the muscle knot and promote healing.
How many trigger point injections will I need?
The number of injections varies based on how many trigger points you have and their severity. During a single session, we may treat multiple trigger points. Most patients see significant improvement after 1-3 sessions, though chronic conditions may require additional treatments. We'll develop a personalized treatment plan based on your response.
Can trigger point injections help with headaches in [City]?
Yes, trigger point injections are highly effective for tension headaches and many types of migraines. Trigger points in the neck, shoulders, and upper back muscles often refer pain to the head. By releasing these muscle knots, many of our [City] patients experience significant reduction in headache frequency and intensity.
