What are TrP Injections?
Trigger Points (TrP) are ares of tight muscles. They are also called muscle knots. Sometimes doctors use lidocaine to take away the pain, but that will wear off in an hour or so. It also generally doesn’t get rid of the knot. Instead, our trigger point injection use a small amount of vitamins and electrolytes directly into the muscle to hydrate the damaged tissue and promote a speedy recovery.

Locally Hydrate
We all know we need to hydrate with activity. Sometimes that doesn’t always work. Trigger Point Injection gets the water and electrolytes to the muscles that need it!

Release The Knots
Have you heard of Dry Needling? This takes it to the nest level. We release the muscle knot AND give the muscle nutrients and electrolytes it needs to repair. DN on steroids! :)

Speed Recovery
Our body needs specific nutrients to perform at it’s best. Exercise can deplete the body and especially the muscles of the nutrients it needs. TrP injections get the nutrients where they’re needed.
Treatment Program
Trigger Points can be tricky little buggers. I can say that these hydrating-electrolyte solutions have been the best way I’ve found to treat them. That being said, the number of treatments required can vary. If it is an acute injury, a few days or a couple of weeks old, they will generally be resolved with 1-3 trigger point injection. For chronic cases, knots that have been present for years, I generally recommend a series of 5.
*If you are working with a lawyer and being treated on a lien basis, billing insurance, or worker’s comp, treatments will be billed at the regular price. If you are able to pay for the treatment at the time of service, you are eligible for the TOS Discount which offers significant savings. This is due to the fact that legal cases can take years to resolve, and insurance and worker’s comp automatically reduce payments to a fraction of what is billed.
