Default trigger points

Hi I have a great book called the trigger point workbook. It outlines anatomy which is a great suggestion to learn as then you can pinpoint where your issue is and clearly explain it to all who are treating you.

The book I got at Costco for $15.00 CDN.....so hopefully you can find it...great book....tells you how to pressure the points to help ease the pain and how to see where the pain is referring to and from.

Hope you find the help you need....always remember if it is a true TOS blockage of vessels or nerves.....more pain is not gain if it hurts like hell and your symptoms flare up too much then you are doing to much. A little bit of muscle pain like when working out is ok, but a blue hand or increased numbness and tingling could mean more compression of nerves and vessels perhaps causing more damage to the area and nerve damage is BAD!!!!!

best of luck,
hugs,
Victoria
