Trigger Point Injections

About Trigger Point Injections

At Lume Wellness in Peoria, AZ, our Trigger Point Injections specialists help patients find lasting relief from chronic muscle pain, tension, and inflammation. This treatment targets painful muscle knots that don’t resolve with stretching, massage, or bodywork alone—offering effective, long-term pain relief and improved mobility.

Balance body & mind

Chronic pain creates a stress response that elevates cortisol and disrupts sleep, creating a cycle that perpetuates muscle tension and inflammation. Through pain management and stress reduction techniques, our Trigger Point Injections in Peoria help break this cycle, addressing both the physical and emotional aspects of persistent pain.

Healthy diets

Inflammation from certain foods can worsen muscle pain and slow healing. We focus on anti-inflammatory nutrition that supports tissue repair, reduces systemic inflammation, and provides the nutrients your muscles need for recovery—especially important when dealing with trigger points and chronic tension.

Personalised Nutrition

Every pain pattern is unique, often involving specific muscle groups, movement patterns, and underlying triggers. We assess your individual pain points, lifestyle factors, and healing needs to create targeted nutritional support that complements your trigger point therapy and promotes lasting relief.

Nutrition and lifestyle

Daily habits significantly impact muscle tension and pain patterns. From hydration and sleep quality to posture and movement patterns, we show you how lifestyle modifications can support your trigger point treatments and prevent painful knots from returning.

TARGETED RELIEF FOR PERSISTENT MUSCLE PAIN

Muscle tension and “knots” can be more than just uncomfortable—they can cause pain that radiates into the neck, shoulders, back, or even trigger headaches. These painful spots, known as trigger points, form when muscle fibers tighten and cannot fully relax.

When stretching, massage, and traditional bodywork aren’t providing lasting relief, you may be dealing with stubborn muscle knots that require more targeted intervention. Trigger point injections target the root of the problem—the contracted muscle fiber—providing longer-lasting relief and helping you move more freely.

Trigger point injections are a simple, in-office treatment designed to relieve this tension. Using a very small needle, a small amount of anesthetic (sometimes combined with anti-inflammatory medicine) is injected directly into the tight muscle band, followed by a dry-needling technique in the muscle. This helps the muscle relax, improves blood flow and allows the surrounding tissue to heal.

FAQ

What is trigger point therapy?

Trigger point therapy is a specialized treatment that targets tight knots or “trigger points” in muscles that cause pain and discomfort. The therapy helps relax these points, improving mobility and reducing pain.

Most patients feel only mild discomfort during the treatment. Any soreness usually subsides within a day, and many people experience noticeable pain relief soon after.

The number of sessions varies depending on the severity of your muscle tension and how your body responds to treatment. Your specialist will create a personalized treatment plan for you.

Yes, trigger point therapy is often used to relieve chronic pain in areas such as the neck, shoulders, back, and legs caused by muscle tightness or tension.
