What Are Trigger Point Injections?

Trigger points are tight, painful muscle knots that form when muscles do not relax. These knots can cause localized pain or radiating discomfort in areas such as the neck, shoulders, back, and head. Trigger Point Injections involve injecting a small amount of anesthetic and/or corticosteroid directly into the trigger point to relax the muscle and relieve pain.

What Conditions Can Trigger Point Injections Treat?

Myofascial Pain Syndrome

  • Chronic muscle pain and tenderness caused by tight muscle fibers

Tension Headaches

  • Trigger points in the shoulders and neck can contribute to persistent headaches

Fibromyalgia

  • Helps alleviate widespread musculoskeletal pain associated with fibromyalgia

Chronic Neck & Back Pain

  • Relieves muscle tension and discomfort caused by posture, stress, or injury

Diagnostic Precision

Stop Guessing. Treat the Root Cause. Effective pain relief starts with an accurate diagnosis. Unlike general pain clinics, CNS Center utilizes advanced EMG & Nerve Conduction Studies to pinpoint the exact source of your pain—whether it is nerve damage, muscle dysfunction, or spinal compression—before we begin treatment.
