TRIGGER POINT THERAPY FOR MIAMI CAR ACCIDENT PATIENTS

Trigger point therapy is a specialized therapy that addresses trigger sites in muscle tissues. Trigger sites are also referred to as muscle knots, trigger points, or adhesions. Trigger sites are small nodule, painful balled up tissue that restrict range of motion and function. People who are injured in a Miami car accident often demonstrate multiple trigger sites in various parts of the body. The Miami chiropractor at the Miami Accident Clinic will diagnose and manage this painful condition. At the Miami Car Accident Clinic, we have licensed massage therapists who are specially trained in Trigger Point Therapy. Our therapists have seen and treated many patients who suffer from this painful condition.

Receiving Trigger Point Therapy for the first time may feel uncomfortable. The first session is usually the most painful because the tissue is not used to being treated. After treatment it is wise to ice the areas when you get home as these areas may become sore and tender. But this is not something uncommon. Soreness, redness, and tenderness are all positive signs from a successful Trigger Point Therapy session. As you progress with each therapy session, your body will be adjusting. Meaning you will experience increased range of motion and decreased pain and tenderness.

If you have been injured in a Miami car accident, you may be entitled to $10,000 in benefits. Call the Miami Car Accident Clinic for a free, no-hassle consultation.
