Just click on the injury site on the diagram of the body. It will show videos (free) and give information. I do not have money to go to my neurologist or to an airrosti dr. at this time. I started doing some of the stretches on the videos on the website, and they have begun to relax the muscles in my shoulder.
I had s tarted walking and stretching my muscles each day which was beginning to help me feel better. I was also wearing my Adidas slides to wear around the house since I have nerve damage and a bunion (also got a cheap bunion splint at Walmart). Couldn't believe how the stretches on the video helped since I have had PT, steroid injections, and electric pulses in the past with little results. I',m all about relief, even in inches. The source of the pain is not always where you feel the pain. Hope it helps you!

It just goes to show that doing it the safe way (slowly stepping up activity in a safe structured way to begin to recondition the body's muscles) pays off even with the presence of trigger points and other 'health stuff'.
