A Reference for the most common trigger points and referral patterns for over 70 muscles. Features 100+ trigger points with their corresponding referral patterns. Each muscle includes the visual referral pattern and point location, plus a written muscle action, referral and comments for each muscle. You can choose to view each muscle individually, or use the zones view to see all the muscles that refer into a specific area, a great help in discovering the source of pain.
Trigger points are tight places in a muscle that cause pain to be felt elsewhere in the body. This is great for massage therapists, physical therapists, chiropractors, or anyone wanting to discover the source of muscular pain, and learn about muscle function.

Customer Reviews
Student massage therapist
Good stuff, but could use a few more muscles and maybe a few more pictures as well.
Nice App
This is a really good app. I'm a professional massage therapist and find this very useful to show to my clients. I would totally pay more money for more information however - professional level info about the muscle structure and function. Also missing is the most useful information - about tracing a pain pattern back to the responsible trigger point. Well worth the $2.99 though.
Pretty useful and accurate for therapy
As an OT that specializes in orthopedics this is very useful in both treatment and patient education. Easy to use, great pictures and works flawlessly.
