Trigger Point Injections

Can Help With These Conditions

Modern Movement Medicine

Trigger points are hyper-irritable spots in muscle tissue that can cause pain in other parts of the body. These points, often referred to as "knots," occur when muscle fibers remain contracted and aren't able to relax properly resulting in tightness, pain and dysfunction. They can form due to muscle overuse, injury, stress, and poor posture.

Trigger point injections are a safe and minimally invasive option to help you feel better and move more freely. At Modern Movement Medicine, we offer personalized Trigger point treatments as part of our comprehensive approach to pain management.

Benefits of Trigger Point Injections:

Relieves muscle tension and pain.
Improves range of motion and mobility.
Provides fast, targeted pain relief.

How it works:

Your provider will insert a small needle into the trigger point of concern. Our trigger point injection consists of 99% magnesium with a saline solution and an optional 1% bupivacaine. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or prefer to avoid bupivacaine, we can exclude it upon request.

Several sites may be injected in one visit. Some patients may require multiple Trigger point injections over several weeks.
