Trigger point injections were developed in the mid-20th century as an effective way to manage myofascial pain. Trigger point injections offer immediate relief from localized muscle pain caused by knots or tight muscle fibers. Unlike oral medications that can take time to act or have systemic side effects, trigger point injections deliver targeted treatment directly to the affected area. Over the years, this treatment has evolved into a standard pain management method in musculoskeletal medicine to treat the following:
Trigger point injections target hyperirritable spots in the muscle, known as trigger points, which can cause pain and restrict movement. The needle disrupts nerve signaling at the point of tension while the anesthetic, saline, or corticosteroid solution relaxes the muscle fibers. This leads to improved blood flow, reduced inflammation, and pain relief. The treatment also helps break the pain-spasm cycle, restoring normal muscle function.

TSFort Worth, TexasDr. Chris and the staff are amazing! I was terrified of chiropractors, but they made me feel at ease.

I highly recommend them; they offer so much more than just chiropractic care. Give them a call! *
NLFort Worth, TexasDr. Chris was so nice and very helpful. I had been dealing with some back pain for sometime now. It was getting to a point to where i would struggle to sometimes even finish my workouts or even runs i would go on. After i started seeing Dr. Chris everything started to get better with my back. I have been able to finally work out and run without any pain or discomfort.
