What are Trigger Points?

• Trigger points are localized tender spots in the
  muscles often detected as lumps or knots.
  Trigger points form when a muscle is injured, or
  overly tense. Chronic inflammation in the muscle
  and physical/emotional stress all contribute to
  knots and formation of scar tissue which may be
  helped with TPIs (trigger point injection).
  Trigger points can also form through time by the
  process of wear and tear on the muscle. Trigger
  points occur when normal, perpendicular muscle
  fibers get tangled and distorted out of their
  uniform pattern. Trigger points are felt as a
  taut band of inflamed muscle fiber and are
  painful when pressed.

What Happens during Trigger Point Injection?

• In the TPI procedure, our health care
  professional inserts a small needle into the
  patients trigger point. The injections at our
  clinic contain a natural agent called Sarapin.
  With the injection, the trigger point is made
  inactive and the pain is alleviated. The
  advantage of the natural plant botanicals like
  Sarapin is that they are not drugs and have no
  known side effects and are non-toxic.
  Corticosteroids are more potent for more severe
  pains but have multiple side-effects. The trigger
  point injection will stimulate healing as the
  circulation is increased into the deeper layer
  muscle fibers and they can once again return to a
  uniform pattern.

How Long Does it Take to Heal?

• We have found that a person responds much quicker
  when TPIs are done in conjunction with
  acupuncture treatments. This has been found to
  yield better results than with TPI or acupuncture
  alone. Injections are performed at East West
  Acupuncture and usually take just a few minutes.
  Several sites may be injected in one visit. It
  depends on the individual case, some peoples pain
  will resolve after their first visit, but usually
  it will take 8-12 visits.
