Synopsis

The third edition of this highly successful book describes how musculoskeletal pain can be simply and effectively treated by acupuncture. It gives a comprehensive account of current knowledge concerning two very commonly occurring musculoskeletal pain disorders - the myofascial trigger point pain syndrome and the fibromyalgia syndrome. Myofascial trigger point pain syndrome is an all too common complaint. It often goes unrecognised or alternatively is passed off as trivial and ineffectively treated. This third edition gives a wide ranging review of current knowledge concerning it. The author, after having given a detailed account of the neurophysiology of pain in general, discusses at length the pathophysiology of myofascial trigger point nociceptive pain and the rationale for alleviating it by means of the acupuncture technique of superficially applied dry needle - evoked nerve stimulation at trigger point sites.

  • Evidence-based, up-to-date, and detailed information on trigger points, musculoskeletal pain, and the physiology of pain provide the most authoritative assessments available on this topic.
  • Practical, step-by-step treatment guidelines help readers apply key concepts to actual practice.
  • Clear illustrations demonstrate important techniques and areas of pain and needling.
  • Expanded coverage of fibromyalgia and the neurophysiology of myofascial trigger points includes common symptoms and treatments.
  • More information on new treatment options for the common problem of whiplash injuries.
  • 5 new chapters
  • Each chapter has been thoroughly revised with fully updated references
  • Includes all relevant clinical trial information
  • Part 3 includes information on a wide range of topics such as migraine, laterial epidondylalgia, repetitive strain injury, whiplash and pelvic floor pain disorders
