Trigger Point Therapy fοr Headaches & Migraines: Yουr Self-Treatment Workbook fοr Pain Relief
The Pressure Positive Company has designed and manufactured tools used widely by patients and practitioners in trigger point therapy since 1980. Since that time, active and informed self care has become increasingly recognized as a crucial component of non invasive trigger point pain management and treatment.
Valerie DeLaune’s Headache and Migraine Workbook delivers highly effective, safe and simple to learn self care techniques that will help engage the patient as an active partner in easing pain and in improving gathering. I can therefore confidantly recommend this book to anyone who suffers from tenacious and debilitating head, neck, shoulder and back pain and dysfunction.

I also have Valerie DeLaune’s brilliant CD-ROM, “Pain Relief with Trigger Point Self-help.” I don’t really suffer from headaches or migraines, myself, but bought this for a friend. The other reviewers have positive experience in by this book, and discuss it very well – I can only add that I reflect the book is well organized, clearly written, and importantly, has copious photos.

As with all the reviews already written I influence that this is an brilliant resource book to have. It clarifies everything there is to know about the trigger points. It also gives credit where credit is due to Dr. Travell, the first real trigger point pioneer and carries her studies even further into present day breakthroughs. It has detailed diagrams as well as easily unwritten techniques to use on clients or on yourself. This book also contains a very in depth chapter on nutrients and vitamins that should be taken for muscle health. Not to mention the insistence of water..(FINALLY) for muscle health and growth. I am a massage therapist specializing in medical massage, deep tissue therapy with neuromuscular and myofascial release and of course trigger point therapy and encounter an extrordinary amount of clients with head pain. This book is my new “go to book” for double checking my techniques. I also keep many of them on hand to give to clients for home self treatment. This book is simple to read, learn from and use. Truly a must have book for not only massage therapists, but anyone in the health care field that sees people for head pain.

This book says it all and shows you how to take care of yourself. If you are looking for something the medical community has been unable to provide for you (as in relief without pharmaceuticals) this is it. Valerie DeLaune knows how to get this valuable information on paper and into your head, very accessible to anyone who can read. I highly recommend it.

I suffer from frozen shoulder and wanted to find an alternative to traditional treatment. A friend recommended this book, and it has helped me a lot. I would recommend it to anyone with shoulder stiffness and pain.
