The Trigger Point
Therapy Workbook: Your Self-Treatment
Guide for Pain Relief
by Clair Davies, N.C.M.T., Clair Davies
It has what you need to get a measure of control over myofascial trigger points (TrPs). So many of the symptoms that are diagnosed as fibromyalgia and other illnesses are actually due to TrPs. For example, treating the myofascial pain component of arthritis may significantly reduce the pain load. Even the wear and tear of daily life, can lead to the gradual loss of range of motion. This is often blamed on aging, but is often actually due to myofascial TrPs. This book has easy to understand diagrams and clear instructions that will enable the average person to locate and treat myofascial TrPs. The reader will then be able to maintain a higher level of health. This book is a valuable tool that will go far to improve the quality of life of the readers, and may also help to open the eyes of health care providers to the pervasiveness and importance of myofasical pain.

Reviewer: Alice B. , RN from Garland, TX United
States
I rate this book right up there with Devin Starlanyl's books. I
have had Fibromyalgia and Myofascial Pain most of my adult life
and have been disabled the past 5 years. This book by Mr. Davies
has just helped me end 2 months of an excruciating flare of
muscle pain. I showed it to my Pain Management physician, who is
ordering one for his office and will advise his other patients
similarly effected to purchase one if possible. When all the
doctors don't know what else to tell you about relieving your
body/muscle pain, this book is the answer. It is easily
understood by medical professionals and laypeople alike. It's
description of the muscles and the mechanism involved in the
creation of unexplained body pain is outstanding. Anyone, by
themself or with another person, will find the diagrams showing
the location of trigger points in muscles and how to achieve
relief easy to learn. Mr. Davies explanation of massage therapy
for trigger point release has made this book one of the best and
most valued tools for self-treatment of body pain.
