Treating erector spinae trigger points

Описание: 👉 Trigger points in the erector spinae are hyperirritable knots or nodules in muscle fibers along the spine, commonly caused by overuse, poor posture, or muscular imbalances.

👉 The pain referral patterns associated with trigger points in the erector spinae can radiate to various areas, including the lower back, hips, buttocks, and legs, depending on the specific location of the trigger point.

👉 Ischemic pressure helps deactivate trigger points in the erector spinae and relieve pain, restoring normal muscle function.

Trigger points are hyperirritable knots or nodules found in muscle fibers that can cause localized pain and referred pain in distant areas. The erector spinae muscles, which run along the spine on either side, are common sites for trigger points. These trigger points in the erector spinae can result from overuse, poor posture, or muscular imbalances. When activated, they can cause pain that radiates to various regions, including the lower back, hips, buttocks, and even down the legs.

Ischemic pressure, a technique commonly used in trigger point therapy, involves applying sustained pressure to the affected trigger point. By doing so, blood flow is temporarily reduced, resulting in ischemia or decreased oxygen supply to the area. This technique helps to deactivate the trigger point and relieve pain. When ischemic pressure is applied to trigger points in the erector spinae, it can help release the tension and restore normal muscle function.

This approach, when combined with other manual therapy techniques, stretching exercises, and postural corrections, can be effective in reducing pain and restoring mobility in individuals suffering from trigger points in the erector spinae.
