Product Description

Review
"With an index of symptoms and easy to follow diagrams and illustrations, Finando provides the opportunity to gain control over your pain through the self-application of trigger point therapy."

Synopsis
A guide to the treatment of pain from common sports injuries and other physical activities. The vast majority of physical injuries incurred by active people begin with muscular injuries that are not addressed by the conventional medical approach to orthopaedic care. Injuries of this type are generally too minor to warrant splinting, casting or medication and often do not prevent participation in physical activities. They do, however, produce noticeable discomfort and, over time, lead to more severe injuries. In "Trigger Point Self-Care Manual", Donna Finando presents methods for the healing and prevention of musculature injuries. She identifies the causes of and remedies for areas of musculature tightness and restriction and details many self-care techniques, including precise self-massage, stretching and the use of wet heat and/or ice. In the fully illustrated reference section, organised by body part, she identifies the pain associated with trigger points in each muscle of the body and provides instructions for palpating, treating and stretching the muscle in order to release it.

5.0 out of 5 stars clear, conscise and helpfull, 14 April 2008
By Mrs. R. N. Ahmad (Newcastle upon Tyne UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Received my book this morning and must say that I am very impressed. I am a holistic therapist and am always looking for 'safe' ways to help other people and myself.
The layout of the book is very clear. A quick reference point: Good diagrams to indicate painful areas and the correcting muscles and page numbers at the end of the book. I also have the Trigger point therapy work book by Claire Davies. This book by Donna Finando is not only clearer BUT gives clear instruction (with diagrams) on how to locate the muscles and then how to stretch the muscles. This is very important in my view, if the muscle has been in spasm for a period, it needs to be stretched. Just working on the trigger points is not enough.
I do 'Spring Forest Qigong' regularly to keep myself in good shape because I am a back pain sufferer myself. I could very quickly identify which muscles to work on and what exercise to use. I can already feel the benefit.If you wanted just one book on Trgger Point Therapy, then you should get this one

3.0 out of 5 stars massage trigger points self care, 29 Aug 2006
By Ms. A. Fielder "oilsoftranquility" (england) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
as a Sports and holistic therapist i often get presented with muscular pain that other medical professionals will not touch as they belive its to trivia. but patients do not feel to trivia and are in actual pain. with this book not only has it helped me while studying its also a good reference for professionals to use and advise patients to alieviate pain and tender areas. this book is well presented with areas of the body presented together with advise on how to aliviate the trigger. it is advisable not to use as a self care guide as the authour presums some advanced training within manaual massage therapy but for a student or therapist wanting a quick guide a very useful tool wouldnt be without it.

4.0 out of 5 stars exellent for self-treatment, 11 Jul 2009
By Jakob Winther - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
really good and easy to use - with symptom index and pain pattern index, it's easy to locate the problem areas.
And with both muscle and triggerpoint drawings and strech exercises, the self-treatement routine is up and running in no time.
