The best thing to do untill finding classes is get the Travell and Simons myofascial pain and dysfunction books. they come in two volumns, one the upper extremities and two the lower extremities. you can find them online book stores new or used.
I got my trainnig during my certification as a myofascial release therapist and then started studying these books.
I have not seen any specific classes in my area either. Wichita falls Tx, Ft. worth or Dallas Tx.
I do however teach CE classes and some of the topics I cover are trigger points. You can take some neuromusclular classes in specific Judith Delaney NMTcenter.com she is from Florida, very good, infact I am taking my last class in her series in Austin Tx this month the 17th. she goes all over and you can apply on line at that website. hope that helps.
Hello. I study and practice trigger point therapy. There is a great book out there were you can learn for yourself :The trigger nTherapy Woorkbook 2nd Edition "Your self-treatment Guide for Pain Relief" by Clair Davies, NCTMB.
I found it very helpfull. I started with 1 or 2 things that's most common i.e. carpul tunel and shoulder pain.
But I also learned in school that a little nodule that causes pain with little pressure is a trigger point. And by holding it, until you feel it disapate is most common. But, I generally vibrate the spot, just to keep the energy moving. But, that's just me.
I hope this is a little helpful.
