Default Re: Anyone hear of trigger points?

At this point, I'd almost try anything. It can't be worse than cortisone injections in the heels of my feet.

Chiropractor reviewed my back history and determined that I had 3 very big trigger points. He was particularly interested in seeing the MRI results from my 2 back surgeries in 2010 before doing too much, which I can understand. I have an 11 # differential from one side to the other and he certainly gave my back some good pops. Overall, I can say I came away with a bit of relief in the pain associated with turning my neck left/up/down compared to what it was. Will get to talk more about the x-ray results/MRI scans for a more detailed plan of action at my follow up on Tuesday.

If anything, I'll be happy to let my wife dig the heel of her foot onto these points to give the areas some stretching.
