Manual therapy and myofascial trigger points go together like peanut butter and jelly, popcorn and movies, spaghetti and meatballs. Unfortunately, in the world of dry needling, it is often an afterthought.
Dr. Rob Stanborough explores the relationship between the two, as well as the importance of treating both elements of what Janet Travell labeled the MYO-FASCIAL trigger point. He shares effects to both elements and reviews David Simons’s very own explanation as to the manual treatment of a trigger point.
