Myofascial trigger points almost prevented John F. Kennedy from becoming President of the United States.
What does this type of pain prevent in your life?
Myofascial trigger points were a revelation in the 1930’s. These Trigger Points are the cause of most muscular aches and pains. Dr. Janet Travell created a detailed identification of pain patterns which fully supported painful restrictions that reduced range of motion. Her treatments were so specific and effective President Kennedy appointed Dr. Travell as the doctor to the White House.
Dr. Janet Travell, The founder of Trigger Point Therapy, injected procaine into target muscles of John F Kennedy in 1955. Kennedy truly believed his career would have been cut short if it weren’t for the injections by Dr. Travell. I must add that Dr. Travell was the first female physician appointed to the White House.

Why has it take so long for the medical profession to accept the effects of Prolo Therapy injections for trigger points and for the stabilization of ligaments? If your doctor dismisses this therapy, go to another doctor or have your doctor research the latest clinical evidence supporting the profound effects of this treatment.
I recommend both Myofascial Therapy and Prolo Therapy for strained ligaments, TMJ, prevention of arthritis, chronic back pain and hyper-mobile joints. Both modalities are very effective methods to reduce pain and regain function.
