On a whim, I picked up The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook, by Clair Davies to give trigger point therapy a try for my chronically tight muscles. After reading through the first few introductory chapters it was clear that Clair's observations, experience, and training, correlated well with my own observations.
As soon as I dug into the technical chapters, which help a novice identify muscle groups, trigger points, and their referred areas, I was converted into a believer. I am relatively early in my exploration of trigger point therapy but am amazed by the short-term results and very optimistic that with continued effort they will become long-term results. Without hesitation, if you have muscle aches, headaches, or other chronic muscle and myofascial issues, The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook is worth your attention.
In 2005, while hiking on the Appalachian Trail, I contracted Lyme's Disease, Giardia, and an unknown third ailment – the beginning of a long battle with ill-health. After five years of exhausting the resources available through western medicine, I began exploring the world of alternative medicine from the viewpoint of an engineer. I have been through the fire and emerged unscathed. For my fellow chronic sufferers, this blog is for you. May hope sustain you and relief find you quickly...
