Pain Relief With Trigger Point Self-Help released this week

June 28, 2011 - PRLog -- Pain Relief With Trigger Point Self-Help is a comprehensive guide for anyone looking to treat their own pain and other trigger point-related symptoms. Author, Valerie DeLaune, explains trigger points (specific areas in the muscle cells which cause localised pain, or pain in seemingly unrelated parts of the body, known as referred pain), and offers simple and effective advice and exercises. Health care practitioners such as physical therapists, massage therapists, physiotherapists and other healthcare professionals will also find Pain Relief an easy-to-use guide for day-to-day practice, with a section in each chapter that includes other possible diagnoses.  

DeLaune explains, “This book has been written and set out in the clearest possible way, and is accessible to both those with and without a previous knowledge of trigger points. Treating trigger points can relieve pain, headaches, dizziness, painful menses, diarrhoea, blurred vision and many other symptoms, if trigger points are the source of the symptoms. Pain Relief With Trigger Point Self-Help is here to help you heal your own body.”

Accompanied by clear colourful photographs and illustrations this health and fitness book advises readers where to search for trigger points, how to treat them by applying pressure and performing stretches, and how to prevent trigger points from forming by making simple lifestyle changes, moving in the correct manner, and addressing nutritional deficiencies and other medical issues. DeLaune describes the main aspects of trigger point therapy in simple terms, substantiated through relevant anatomical and physiological explanations.

DeLaune explains, “During my years as a practitioner I have treated hundreds of fairly simple cases where people had been told their only option was to learn to live with their pain, but this needn’t be the case. In my experience people who do self-treatments at home in addition to receiving professional treatments improve at least five times faster than those who only receive professional treatments.”
