Effect of Muscle Energy Technique Versus Strain-counterstrain on Upper Trapezius Trigger Points

Strain-counterstrain is also used for manual Trigger Point processing. This involves identifying active TRP and then applying pressure until a ridiculous reaction occurs. The area is then positioned to reduce tension in the injured muscle and later reduce tripod pain. When the pain subsides, the tissues that are most stressed feel relaxed and there is a local decrease in the ground

Muscle Energy Technique is a common way to achieve muscle tension release (stop) before stretching other's adductor muscles
