Ultrasound-guided trigger point injections are a potential treatment for various pain locations in the body. Ultrasound is widely used to gain a clearer view of internal structures and is non-invasive. It assists in guiding the minimally invasive injections that alleviate pain at trigger points.
At AK Twisted Wellness, the entire process is explained to patients, and real-time visual feedback is provided through a mobile monitor during treatment. The aim is to enhance blood flow and oxygen levels to the painful area.
Trigger points are highly sensitive spots in muscles and fascia that are painful when pressed and can cause tightness. They may also lead to referred pain, where pain is felt in a different area than the actual trigger point. They can be caused by muscle overload, acute trauma, repeated minor injuries, or inflammation.
During the procedure, healthcare professionals at AK Twisted Wellness, who are licensed prescribers, administer the trigger point injections with the aid of external ultrasound guidance. This can alleviate pain, increase mobility, and is part of their minimally invasive treatment strategy. These injections are effective for various types of pain, including in the neck, shoulders, and back.
The procedure is quick, performed in-office, and the results can include immediate and lasting pain relief and improved movement. Afterward, patients may experience soreness and are advised to ice the area. Follow-up evaluations and repeated injections may be recommended.
Ultrasound is used externally to provide a visual aid during injections and is part of the comprehensive approach to patient care at AK Twisted Wellness. It ensures accuracy in locating the injection site in relation to nerves, muscles, and blood vessels and improves the efficacy of the treatment while reducing complications.
The choice to use ultrasound for trigger point injections is due to the increased accuracy it provides, compared to “blind” injections without such guidance.
The benefits of ultrasound are notable, as it has a long history of safe use in medicine, operating without the risks associated with ionizing radiation. Insurance may cover the cost of trigger point injections, and AK Twisted Wellness offers payment options.
