A good Myofascial Triggerpoint Massage Therapist will teach you (or a partner/caregiver/etc.) how to treat those chronic trigger points (the ones that keep coming back every few days) at home, which can/will $ave a lot.
There's also the
Trigger Point Therapy Workbook

As noted, this is
not for
tender points.
