Neuromuscular Trigger Point Massage in Manhattan Beach: Why Doesn’t Your Shoulder Move Well.
According to a fascinating article in Massage Today, one of the most overlooked causes of Restricted Range of Motion (RRoM) in the arms is a trigger point cluster — several trigger points in relatively close proximity — in the subscapularis muscle (that’s the muscle that sits sandwiched between the shoulder blade and the ribs.) Most doctors will automatically assume that your RRoM is the product of a dislocation, a fracture, arthritis, or a torn rotator cuff. There’s a startling amount of “idiopathic” RRoM diagnoses, however, and this is quite likely a result of the fact that most traditional doctors have no experience with trigger points, and no idea of how to treat them. You need a qualified Neuromuscular/Trigger Point Massage Therapist — so if your shoulder hurts so much you can’t move your arm and the doctor doesn’t know why, call us today to help.
