Where does Trigger Point Myotherapy (TrPM) come from?
Unlike acupressure, TrPM is based on a Western medical model. It is the result of long years of research and documentation by many physicians including: Drs. Calliet, Rinzler, Grosshandler, Kraus, Sola, Simons and particularly Travell. Dr. Janet Travell, White House Physician to Presidents Kennedy and Johnson, researched and published the specific pain patterns and symptoms caused by the specific trigger points. She showed how to successfully locate, treat and deactivate these trigger points. All of our Board Certified Trigger Point Myotherapists at our Center, in addition to their specialized schooling, have personally studied with Dr. Travell.
