When a muscle is overstressed or overexpanded, it can develop areas in which the core becomes ischemic, and thus, painful (trigger point).

Each of these muscles can develop trigger points and cause pain in far-away areas.<\/p>\n<p>This therapy form tends to be painful, as it targets the sensitive spots in the musculature that are impeding the flow of blood and oxygen.
