Trigger Point Injections In Smithtown, NY

Trigger Point Injection Services at Evia Medical

At Evia Medical, we understand how debilitating muscle pain and tightness can be. Our specialized Trigger Point Injection (TPI) services are designed to relieve pain, improve mobility, and enhance your quality of life through targeted, minimally invasive treatment.

What Are Trigger Point Injections?

Trigger points are tight, painful knots in muscles that can cause localized pain or refer pain to other areas of the body. These spots often develop due to muscle overuse, injury, poor posture, or stress.

Trigger Point Injections involve the precise administration of a local anesthetic, sometimes combined with a corticosteroid, directly into these painful muscle knots. This treatment helps relax the muscle, reduce inflammation, and alleviate pain quickly.

Who Can Benefit from Trigger Point Injections?

Trigger Point Injection therapy is effective for patients experiencing:

  • Chronic muscle pain and stiffness
  • Myofascial pain syndrome
  • Neck and shoulder pain
  • Back pain, including lower back discomfort
  • Fibromyalgia-related muscle tenderness
  • Sports-related muscle injuries
  • Postural muscle strain and tension

If you suffer from persistent muscle pain that limits your daily activities, TPI at Evia Medical may offer you significant relief.
