Let's assess your situation and discuss the relief you could have with Neuromuscular (Trigger Point) Therapy.
A survey done by the American Pain Society in 1999 revealed that more than four out of ten people suffering moderate to severe pain were unable to find adequate pain relief. -- Chronic Pain in America: Roadblocks to Relief, survey conducted for the AmericanPain Society, The American Academy of Pain Medicine and Janssen Pharmaceutica,1999.

Travell and Simons' seminal work on the subject, Myofascial Pain and Dysfunction: The Trigger Point Manual[1], states the following:
Around 75% of pain clinic patients have a trigger point as the sole source of their pain.
Arthritis is often cited as the cause for pain even though pain is not always concomitant with arthritis. The real culprit may be a trigger point, normally activated by a certain activity involving the muscles used in the motion, by chronically bad posture, bad mechanics, repetitive motion, structural deficiencies such as a lower limb length inequality or a small hemipelvis, or nutritional deficiencies.
The following conditions are also frequently misdiagnosed as the cause of pain when trigger points are the true cause: carpal tunnel syndrome, bursitis, tendinitis, angina pectoris, and sciatic symptoms, along with many other pain problems.

As his standard and customary practice, Kevin has been concentrated in these persistent pain cases and achieved very satisfactory pain relief results within 3 initial visits in most of his new clients.
It's a free consultation on initial visit, if I do not believe you are a candidate for medical massage therapy, no treatment will be recommended. If indicated, a trial program (not free) of three visits will be recommended, you will only continue with more therapies after you have experienced noticeable and satisfactory improvement.
Medical Massage Therapy may not be for every one or every condition. Most clients at this clinic have experienced a very positive response and it may help you, as it did for the majority of my clients who continue with satisfactory improvement.
After only 3 visits, if you do not experience any satisfactory or noticeable improvement, you will be advised to stop medical massage therapy and/or referred to appropriate physicians or specialists of your choice for further evaluation and management of your conditions.
