Trigger Point Massage Therapy was found in 1942 by Dr. Jannet Travel private physician of American president John F. Kennedy in order to help the president get a longer presidential career. There are lots of similarities between Chinese Acupressure and Trigger Point Therapy. Trigger point causes the pain and discomfort in any specific part of the body and results in the patient’s complaint. The pain refers to other muscle/s and bringing in muscle disturbances for one muscle or even elsewhere in the body. Through this therapy session, the students learn about the trigger point massage that activates the muscles and releases the knots and tensions, helping the patients to be energetic and more flexible. Strenuous workout or inactive lifestyle might lead to pain in different parts of the body, which can only be resolved with the trigger massage
The classes are divided into practical and short theoretical session, where the students can gain knowledge of the essential theory in Trigger Point as well as try the techniques on the patients. The theoretical training covers types, causes, symptoms & management of the pain, contraindications, and the practical training program covers Neuro Muscular Technique (NMT), Deep tissue massage, and Treatment massage. Throughout the session, the candidates learn using their elbow, forearm, fists, palms, knuckles, and thumbs to apply the pressure in the areas that are causing discomfort. The pressure reaches the deeper layers of the muscles, releasing the pain and activating the muscles. Certificates are bestowed to the pursuers right after the completion of the training program and can practice in this field.
