Personalized treatment for trigger points and targeted muscle tension
Trigger points are tender areas in a muscle that may feel like knots, taut bands or localized points of tension. They may cause discomfort in the same area or contribute to sensations felt nearby, such as tension in the neck, shoulders, back, hips, glutes, legs, arms or jaw.

At Solution Santé +, treatment for trigger points and muscle pain begins with listening. Your session is adapted to what you are feeling, where the tender points are located, how long the discomfort has been present, which movements or activities affect it, and how your body responds during the appointment. The approach remains professional, gradual and respectful of your comfort.
Trigger points and muscle pain can be influenced by several factors. Some clients notice them after stress, repetitive movements, physical exertion, training, postural habits, prolonged sitting, computer work, lifting, insufficient recovery or accumulated tension. Others experience recurring knots that return in the same areas over time.
Trigger points and muscle pain may be associated with:
- Localized muscle knots
- Tender muscle points
- Neck and shoulder tension
- Upper or lower back discomfort
- Hip, glute or leg tension
- Arm, forearm or jaw tension
- Repetitive movements
- Posture-related tension
- Stress and accumulated tension
- Muscle fatigue after exertion
- Reduced mobility or stiffness
- Recurring tension in the same areas
A session may target a specific area or include surrounding muscles that may be contributing to discomfort. The goal is to support muscle comfort, relaxation, mobility and greater body awareness without pushing your body beyond its limits.
A precise approach to muscle knots, tenderness and mobility
Trigger points rarely appear without context. A tender muscle point may be influenced by posture, movement habits, stress, fatigue, training, work demands or tension in surrounding areas. That is why treatments at Solution Santé + take into account both the tender point and the broader muscle chain involved.
Depending on your needs, your session may include massage therapy, trigger point therapy, therapeutic massage, deep tissue massage, treatments inspired by kinesitherapy, orthotherapy, fasciatherapy, cupping or IASTM. The right method is chosen according to your comfort, sensitivity, goals and physical condition at the time.
The Solution Santé + approach may include:
- A clear discussion before the session
- Identifying tender muscle points
- Work on the affected area and surrounding muscles
- Pressure adjusted to your tolerance
- Gentle, moderate or deeper techniques according to your needs
- Slow, gradual work rather than forced pressure
- Mobility-focused care when appropriate
- Follow-up notes to support continuity of care
- Adjustments from one session to the next
- Respect for your pace and personal boundaries

When to seek treatment for trigger points or muscle pain
You may want to book when:
- You feel a recurring knot in the same area
- A muscle feels tight, tender or difficult to release
- Your neck, shoulders, back, hips or legs feel tight
- Pressure on a point reproduces familiar discomfort
- Your work posture or screen use increases tension
- Training or physical exertion creates muscle overload
- Stress seems to create localized tension
- Stretching or rest does not fully release the area
- You want treatment adapted to your tolerance
- You want clear follow-up from one session to the next
It may be time to seek treatment when muscle pain, knots or localized tension affect movement, sleep, work, training, posture or everyday comfort. Even when the discomfort seems tolerable, recurring trigger points can influence how your body moves and compensates.
