Myofascial trigger points: translating molecular theory into manual therapy

, 2020
: Theories regarding the molecular pathophysiology of myofascial trigger points (MFTrPs) have undergone fundamental revisions in recent years. New research suggests that MFTrPs are evoked by the abnormal depolarization of motor endplates.

Comparison of immediate myofascial pressure release treatment effects among active and latent trigger points

, 2013
Context: Myofascial Trigger Points (MTrPs) are common causes of pain. Pressure Release (PR) treatments positively affect MTrP Pain Intensity (PI) and Pain Pressure Threshold (PPT), but the results are confusing, which may be due to the type of trigger ...
