Trigger Point Injections

Patient with muscle pain — trigger point injections at Ascension Health

Here at Ascension Health, we are proud to offer trigger point injections for patients struggling with fibromyalgia, tension headaches, myofascial pain, and muscle pain in the arms, legs, lower back and neck.

During your appointment, we'll locate the area where you're experiencing pain and inject small amounts of anesthetic to help alleviate your symptoms.

This procedure is safe and the risk of possible complications is very low. You may experience soreness or numbness at the injection site for a temporary period of time. While you should avoid strenuous activity for a few days, you should be able to actively use your muscles immediately following treatment.

Why it works

A simple, in-office way to break the pain cycle.

Fast Symptom Relief

Use your muscles right after treatment — just avoid strenuous activity for a few days.

Treats Many Conditions

Safe & Low-Risk

A well-tolerated procedure with a very low risk of complications.
