Back pain can have a huge impact on your career. It is important that you take steps to minimise your pain and avoid workplace impact. Remember to:

2. Remember to stretch, stretch, stretch!
3. Manage your pain through self help techniques (be sure to only follow advice from your doctor or registered health therapist).
4. Seek a professional Trigger Point Therapist to help reduce your risk of future back pain and manage your current pain.

Dry needling has been widely used in clinical practice to treat Tinnitus due to Trigger Points. Here are five reasons Trigger Point Therapy could be the answer to your Tinnitus.

① Studies show a strong correlation between tinnitus and the presence of musculoskeletal trigger points in head, neck and shoulder girdle.

② Trigger points in certain jaw muscles can effect tinnitus

③ Somatosensory tinnitus and tinnitus related to emotional factors can often be treated with trigger point therapy.

④ A person with tinnitus is nearly five times more likely to present with Trigger Points which will in turn effect tinnitus symptoms.

⑤ Poor posture and postural pain can also be a factor in tinnitus

① Many untreated trigger points can either effect sinus drainage directly or indirectly through their referral pattern over sinus cavities.

② Releasing trigger points around the neck and shoulders can often bring sinus relief.

③ Jaw (TMJ) problems, including trigger points in the jaw muscle, can mimic or exasperate sinus pain.

④ Sinus headaches are often misdiagnosed and can, in fact, be Myofascial trigger points.

⑤ In the absence of a sinus infection, a therapist skilled in trigger point therapy can release sinus associated trigger points or give you a self-treatment plan to treat your own trigger points.

A fantastic article about the benefits of trigger point therapy for fibromyalgia patients suffering with neck and muscle pain.

"Myotherapy is a great option if you’re interested in massage. Myotherapy uses a broader range of massage techniques than a typical therapeutic massage does. They focus primarily on trigger point therapy but might also use other techniques such as dry needling, musculoskeletal alignment, deep tissue massage, cupping, and muscle stretching in addition to a range of rehabilitative exercises."

Columnist Robin Dix writes of her struggle with neck and shoulder pain, and shares research on how to relieve it, from exercise to alternative therapies.

Ouch! 🤕🤕 Never hold in a sneeze! In addition to ruptured throats, there is a serious risk of suffering from pulled muscles in the back and neck. There have also been reported cases of burst eardrums, ruptured blood vessels in the eyes, damaged facial nerves, broken backs, and even cracked ribs! 😬

Holding your nose and closing your mouth while you sneeze might seem a harmless thing to do, but doctors have advised against it following the case of man who ruptured the back of his throat when doing so.
