What are Trigger Point Injections?

Trigger Point Injections are a safe and effective treatment for relieving chronic joint pain caused by tight, knotted muscles. These knots, or "trigger points," form when muscles do not relax, leading to irritation, inflammation, and pain. Trigger Point Injections are administered directly into the affected areas to provide relief and restore mobility.

How do Trigger Point Injections Work?

Trigger point injections deliver a small amount of anesthetic or corticosteroid directly into the trigger point. This reduces inflammation and interrupts the pain signals being sent to the brain. By relaxing the tight muscle fibers, these injections alleviate the pressure placed on surrounding joints and nerves, which can significantly reduce chronic joint pain.
