Trigger points — hypersensitive nodules within skeletal muscle — are implicated in 75 to 90% of all musculoskeletal pain presentations. They mimic radiculopathy, headaches, joint pain and dozens of other conditions, making them one of the most frequently misidentified phenomena in clinical practice. This course gives you the assessment precision to identify them and the technical skill to address them effectively.
Developed by Dr. Joe Rosário, PhD, with over 25 years of clinical and teaching experience, this programme uses a clear, systematic methodology grounded in the original work of Travell and Simons and refined through thousands of clinical cases. By the end of day two, you will have the tools to resolve presentations that have frustrated both you and your patients for years.

I had been working with neck pain for years with limited success. After this course I understand exactly why — and the techniques have made a real difference in my practice. This knowledge alone was worth ten times the course fee.
The trigger point course is not just theory. By the afternoon of day one, I was already getting local twitch responses. Day two I worked on a colleague's chronic shoulder pain that had not responded to anything else. Outstanding.
