Trigger Points QuickStudy Laminated Reference Guide (QuickStudy Academic)

Nice teaching item.

I liked that it was sturdy and the illustration was very detailed. Can easily mount it on the wall. It is also portable, because it folds in half, making it a convenient size.

I purchased this Reference Guide so that I would have a visual guide to help me locate the pressure points to relieve the pain in my husband shoulders.

Informative

Very detailed

Excellent trigger point chart! The best ones by far are from Anatomical Chart Company, but they are like $70, so this is a great alternative for the price. Also, it’s smaller, it’s waterproof, and it’s portable- you can fold it up like a brochure, or you can hang it on the wall like I did in my office, just with a thumbtack, or on a small nail like a you would a calendar, so you can flip it over

I already know the pain referral patterns pretty well but it was still a little confusing showing people with all the overlapping which points had which patterns. It would have been so easy to make each pattern a different color or even just put a different color around the pattern shape and match it to the text. And because it's laminated I can't color it myself. I also find the patterns a little skimpy. In my own experience and in a few of the books, I've found more areas for some of the points than the chart indicates but since patterns differ from person to person anyway it would be impossible to create a truly accurate map. This is still good to use for showing a client how the points work and where to hunt if you have pain in a certain area but I don't think I would have wasted the money if I had seen it first. I will probably give it away and go back to showing people out of the trigger point work book. (Either The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook: Your Self-Treatment Guide for Pain Relief, Second Edition or Trigger Point Therapy for Myofascial Pain: The Practice of Informed Touch or even The Muscle and Bone Palpation Manual with Trigger Points, Referral Patterns and Stretching, 1e if you want to go more in depth.)

I used this chart as a quick reference when doing trigger point myofacial pain massage for my wife under the direction of a rehab physician and physical therapist. The chart is easy to read and very durable. It makes for a great visual when I do the massage. It also makes a good reference when conferring with her physician regarding progress and effectiveness regarding the at home massage. I would recommend this to anyone seeking a pain management technique and visual to show the doctor. You can be specific when showing the doctor, physical therapist, occupational therapist, or licensed massage therapist.

Fantástico Me gustó mucho !!!

ALONG WITH OTHER TRIGGER POINT BOOKS HELPFUL CHART.

Bien utiliser les points de nous corp.

Es ist schon toll, wenn man seine Triggerpunkte durch aufhängen des Atlas jederzeit im blick hat - wunderschöne Idee

Bought to go along with a book and a tens machine for my cousin. She used this to take with her to her physio and he can use a dry eraser marker to Mark where the next Leads should be placed. Very handy and very sturdy as well as quite detailed! Far more detail than required for her use so it’s certainly a great product for a budding medical student or nurse! Can’t beat the price as the laminate alone would cost that!
