In 2002, I discovered the amazing effects of Trigger Point Therapy after self-treating my myofascial trigger points (MTrPs)... I have been virtually pain-free since then. I certainly know what it's like to be searching for a solution when it comes to a chronic pain problem, having been through it all myself... and know what it's like to be living month after month with no apparent remedy for the symptoms.
Year after year continues to bring great success in helping others with their discomfort... this is accomplished with a method that is based on Travell and Simons' work - but uniquely mine. This type of bodywork, although an effective treatment for many myofascial symptoms, cannot guarantee to be effective for all folks. However, I'm convinced that it's a powerful tool for overcoming Chronic Myofascial Pain (CMP), as well as most other soft-tissue pain and symptoms, including Fibromyalgia.
Only when employed in a comprehensive manner, will Trigger Point Therapy have a high success rate in remedying many pain/symptom issues. Even symptoms that seem unrelated to "muscle problems" such as migraine, vertigo, IBS, bladder issues, and dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation) can quite often be mitigated or fully remedied, when this bodywork is employed in a thorough and knowledgeable manner.
My previous health field experience as an ambulance paramedic, allowed me the opportunity to offer specialized emergency care to people in need. Now I am committed to help others in need in a completely different way... and in a much calmer setting. With trigger point bodywork techniques, I've helped many hundreds of people feel a great deal better by reducing or eliminating their pain.
Please explore this website and if you need further information, have a question about your specific issue, or wish to book a treatment, please click here. The goal is to help clients improve their quality of life and (ideally) be pain-free, and also to spread the word about this effective remedial bodywork so that many others can benefit from it. And please talk to your doctor or massage therapist... ask what they know about Trigger Point Therapy and if they think it would help with your condition.
