Not all knee pain comes from the knee! Here’s an example of a treatment protocol I use when pain in the knee originates from trigger points in 2 of the hamstring muscles; semi-membranosus and semi-tendinosus. These two muscles attach to the inside of the knee and when the muscle is super tight, it will pull on the knee creating “knee pain”. Something a little acupuncture and cupping can fix and easily!

Trigger Point therapy is a type of acupuncture that releases underlying myofascial trigger points and holding patterns by causing a jump in the muscle that causes it to loosen tight knotted muscle fibers. Alyx Soesman has several years of extensive training in trigger point therapy based on the work of Janet Travell, MD. This video shows an example of trigger point therapy being done on the trapezius, giving relief to a patient with a tight trapezius muscle.
