Trigger points are painful "knots" in your muscles. When muscles can't relax, these trigger points form. Much of the time, trigger points are associated with poor posture, muscle injury, poor mechanics that lead to muscle stress, and joint disorders. TPI is a procedure where the doctor injects a small needle, with local anesthetic or saline and possibly a steroid, into the target area. This can help alleviate the pain.
TPI is used to relieve pain in areas of muscle that do not relax. Once it is injected, it quickly makes the trigger point inactive and alleviates the pain. It is used to treat many different muscle groups including muscles in your arms, legs, back, and neck. It can also help with fibromyalgia, tension headaches, and myofascial pain syndrome.
