Biomechanical Education

Day-to-day activity can take its toll on the body. When the soleus and calves tighten, they reduce dorsal flexion of the foot, forcing your quads to take the absorption of each step when you run or walk. As your quads become overworked and tight, your TFL and psoas also become overworked as well. Your psoas connects the front of your body to the back of your body when it gets tight, it compresses the lower back. This can cause your pelvis to tilt, resulting in IT band problems, lower-back pain, and muscular challenges in other areas.

TRIGGER POINT THERAPY:

Based on the discoveries of Dr. Janet Travell and Dr. David Simons, in which they found the causal relationship between chronic pain and its source, Myofascial Trigger Point therapy is used to relieve muscular pain and dysfunction through applied pressure to trigger points of referred pain and through stretching exercises. These points are defined as localized areas in which the muscle and connective tissue are highly sensitive to pain when compressed. Pressure on these points can send referred pain to other specific parts of the body. Trigger Point Performance products are specifically designed to support the massage associated with Trigger Point Therapy, Myofascial Release Therapy and other forms of massage therapy.
