Trigger Point Injections

Trigger Point Injections (TPIs) are a safe, minimally invasive procedure designed to relieve muscle pain, stiffness, and spasms caused by tight knots in the muscle fibers (trigger points). These trigger points can limit movement, radiate pain to surrounding areas, and interfere with daily activities. By targeting the source directly, TPIs help reduce pain and restore function.

Conditions Treated with Trigger Point Injections

Trigger Point Injections can be an effective treatment option for patients dealing with:

 

  • Chronic muscle pain and spasms

  • Myofascial pain syndrome

  • Fibromyalgia

  • Tension headaches

  • Neck and back pain

  • Muscle pain following injury or overuse

Benefits of Trigger Point Injections

Patients often choose Trigger Point Injections because they can provide:

 

  • Immediate pain relief in the treated area

  • Reduced muscle tightness and spasms

  • Improved flexibility and range of motion

  • Enhanced outcomes when combined with physical therapy

  • Better quality of life with restored mobility and function

How the Procedure Works

Our specialists perform Trigger Point Injections with precision and care to ensure patient comfort:

 

  1. Assessment: The physician examines and identifies the trigger points causing symptoms.

  2. Injection: A thin needle delivers a local anesthetic and/or corticosteroid directly into the trigger point.

  3. Relief: Pain relief is often immediate, and results may last from several weeks to a few months, depending on the condition.
