A skilled practitioner will be able to intuitively identify the trigger points with feedback from the client. When releasing the constricted tissue, pain and tension is lessened and sometimes completely relieved after just one treatment.
Deep tissue, trigger point, neuromuscular and orthopedic work necessitate a deep understanding of anatomy, and your SMART Integrative Massage Group therapist will use their knowledge to reach the desired effects. As with any of the therapeutic techniques, ongoing treatments incorporating a variety of modalities can help break the pain-spasm-pain cycle of the muscles and achieve a specific goal.
