Trigger Point Therapy is a targeted, hands-on treatment designed to release tight areas in muscle tissue—commonly known as “knots”—that can cause pain, tension, and limited movement. At our practice, we offer a non-invasive approach to trigger point therapy, using only manual techniques that are suitable for all ages.
What are Trigger Points?
Trigger points are hyperirritable spots in muscles that develop when muscle fibers stay contracted for extended periods. These points can cause pain in the area where they form or refer pain to other parts of the body. For example, a trigger point in the shoulder may cause discomfort down the arm or into the neck.
These painful knots often form from:
- Overuse or repetitive motion
- Poor posture
- Muscle injury or trauma
- Stress and tension
- Lack of movement or prolonged sitting
Trigger Point Therapy can help with the following:
- Chronic muscle tightness
- Tension headaches or migraines
- Neck, shoulder, or back pain
- Sciatica-like symptoms
- Jaw tension or TMJ disorder
- Limited mobility or stiffness
- Postural imbalances
Reduce pain and promote circulation naturally.
Trigger Point Therapy offers a non-invasive path to pain relief and better movement. With consistent treatment, many people experience lasting improvements in how they feel and function—without relying on medication or invasive procedures.

Sometimes, I go in for my appointment feeling so stressed out, from work, or traffic, or whatever. Dr. Kianian always knows exactly where the tension is, even if I barely realize it myself. I mean, she can get rid of a headache instantly, just by putting a little pressure on the right spot. I always walk out of there feeling like a new person.
A friend told me about Dr. Kianian. I knew right away that her method of treatment was unlike anything I had ever had. For the first time, someone really worked my muscles, and told me exactly what was wrong with my back and neck. She’s been treating the muscles and aligning my spine, and after two months of treatment, my pain is 90% gone.
I had many sleepless nights due to tremendous shoulder pain. I was not seeking any kind of medical care or treatment; I just tolerated the pain. Some relatives and friends recommended to try out the Holistic Health Care Center. The medical care and treatments I have received here have been very effective. My shoulder pain is almost completely eliminated and is continuing to improve. I’m now feeling healthier and sleeping very well at night.
I have been a patient at SJHHC for almost a year. I have always had great experiences here. Office staff is encouraging and very helpful. I would recommend this office to my friends & family. It is very kid friendly office as well. A Very Happy Patient!
My girlfriend was being treated by Dr. Kianian for back pain, and asked her if she could treat asthma. Dr. Kianian told me that people often suffer from asthma because the back is misaligned, which causes the chest muscles tighten up against your lungs. I started treatment, and the results have been great. Dr. Kianian fixed the tightness in my muscles and showed me how years of bad posture had caused my spine to curve the wrong way. She knew exactly what the root of my breathing and allergy problems were, and explained everything clearly to me. Now, I feel like I know what I have to do to stay healthy. My breathing is normal and free again. And, it’s now peak allergy season and I haven’t sneezed once yet.
I love coming here. It’s like a spa treatment (even when it hurts). The doctor is so knowledgeable, she can offer advice on a number of health topics. You always get the feeling that she remembers you well and monitors your progress carefully. The staff is wonderful, and the new massage therapist is terrific.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Kianian for almost four months now. I was in a car accident and did some serious damage to my back. Every step of the way she’s worked with me, talked to me about exactly what has been going on and professionally addressed each concern as it’s come up, no matter how minor it has been. The staff is friendly and helpful and always willing to work with my schedule, even last minute changes.

The effectiveness of the treatment here has been a gift! I’ve regained my life. I can sleep the night through without pain – I am essentially pain free now – and I can dance again! I feel less stressed by stressful situations, and I seldom feel neck pain or headaches anymore either. I went in for my back and got more than I thought I needed.
This place is absolutely fantastic! Scheduled a chiropractic appointment for my mom. Staff was very friendly and professional. Dr. Kianian is extremely talented, professional and kind. She made my mom feel right at ease and took her time to clearly explain her healing process. My mom loved her acupressure therapy session and it really helped her aching back and legs. They even took care to make sure I was comfortable as I waited. The facilities are very clean and inviting. A great health care clinic and I would definitely recommend it! I think just about anyone could benefit from the health services they offer. I will definitely be going here again myself.
