Have you ever wondered what exactly a trigger point is and whether it can truly be “fixed” by simply massaging it harder? Prepare to be pleasantly surprised!
Contrary to popular belief, the solution to trigger point pain is not about using a harder or spikier tool (ouch!).
In fact, the real fix is far less painful and offers longer-lasting relief.
So if you have knots in your upper back that feel like rocks…
Or the outside of your thigh feels like a rumble strip when it meets your foam roller…
