Trigger Point Therapy DVD/Video: Low Back Pain & Sciatica
Description: This was the first protocol we designed and implemented in our private practice over a decade ago. This comprehensive protocol has proven to be the foundation of a successful practice, providing an effective solution to a variety of low back pain complaints for hundreds of patients over the years.
Pain Complaints Addressed With This Protocol:
- Low Back Pain: Typically described as pain in the belt-line, lumbar spine, and Sacro-Iliac joint regions, this pain complaint is nearly always the result of trigger point activity in multiple muscle groups. Effective treatment requires a good clinical understanding of how trigger points interact with one another in this region, as well as a proper identification of the primary muscle overload.
- Gluteal / Buttock Pain: Trigger points that refer pain to the gluteal region include those in the Gluteus Maximus, Gluteus Medius, Gluteus Minimus, and three other muscle groups. Gluteal pain complaints can be stubborn conditions if the therapist fails to employ a comprehensive approach to their treatment.
- Sciatica: The term sciatica refers to a group of symptoms that involve pain and paresthesia that radiates into the buttock region and down the leg. Typically sciatica symptoms are the result of nerve compression secondary to a disc herniation in the lumbar spine, but trigger points in the Gluteus Minimus and Piriformis muscle are also frequent sources of this type of pain. Many cases of sciatica that are not effectively addressed by surgery respond well to this protocol.
