Trigger points are irritable nodules in a muscle exterior. They can cause referred pain, twitching and painful discomfort in a very specific area on your body, headaches, neck and back pain. Trigger points can be caused by overuse of muscles (particularly in weightlifting), poor posture, injury, chronic stress and sleep disturbance.
Trigger points can be released via self-massage using a Pocket Trigger Point Therapy tool to perform massage on the targeted area. Our high-density, Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) material technology had been designed in three firmness levels for your comfort - Soft (Green), Medium (Orange) and Hard (Blue).
