Infinity Wellness Institute is where pain relief begins. We know chronic tension headaches can squeeze the joy out of your days. That band-like pressure around your head isn’t just annoying. It distracts you, saps your energy, and influences your emotions. At Infinity Wellness Institute, we don’t mask symptoms. We dig down to the tight muscle knots that trigger your pain and guide you back to comfort. We use hands-on therapy, acupuncture, cupping, and mindfulness. Our wellness plans are made for you. They help you save time, boost energy, and enjoy life’s simple pleasures.
What Is a Trigger Point?
A trigger point is a small knot in a tight muscle. You can feel it if you press on your neck or shoulders. That knot sends pain signals to your head. When you squeeze the knot, the pain in your head may get worse for a moment. Then it often eases.
How Does Trigger Point Therapy Work
Find the Knots
- The therapist finds tight muscle spots using their hands or tools. They check areas in your neck, shoulders, and upper back.
Press the Knots
- The therapist holds pressure on each knot for a few seconds or a minute. The pressure can feel firm.
Release and Relax
- After the pressure, the knot softens. The muscle can stretch more easily. Blood and fluid flow better.
Stretch and Move
- The therapist may guide you to do simple stretches. This keeps the muscles soft and helps stop the knot from coming back.
Why It Works for Tension Headaches
- Tight muscles in your neck or shoulders can pull on the base of your skull.
- That pull can cause or hold pain in your head.
- By easing the tight spots, the pull lessens.
- Less pulling means less headache pain.
Step by Step at Infinity Wellness Institute
Step 1: Evaluation
We meet you face-to-face. We talk about your health history. We ask when your headaches start and how they feel. This first visit lasts about 60 to 90 minutes. We may do a little treatment that day if it feels right.
Step 2: Start Your Journey
We plan a five-month program with 12 visits. Each visit has:
- Guided meditation or mindfulness to calm your mind.
- Acupuncture and cupping to boost blood flow.
- Massage methods such as myofascial release and trigger point therapy help alleviate muscle knots.
- Other proven methods for lasting relief.
Step 3: Customize Your Care
Every time you visit, we check on your progress. We adjust your plan if needed. This approach provides an ideal combination of treatments to improve your well-being.
Our Services
Acupuncture & Cupping
- Acupuncture involves inserting thin needles into specific locations on the body. Cupping uses glass or silicone cups to lift the skin. Both methods help blood move to tight areas. This makes muscles relax.
Guided Meditation & Mindfulness
- These tools calm your nervous system. When you sit quietly and breathe with guidance, your body learns to lower stress. Lowering stress can ease pain pathways.
Pain Management & Symptom Control
- We look at all your symptoms. You might have fatigue, nausea, or muscle numbness. We combine medicine, massage, and lifestyle tips. Our objective is to enhance your well-being instead of merely covering up symptoms.
What to Expect
- You may feel sore in spots for a day. That is normal as muscles open up.
- Your headaches may lessen in length or strength.
- You might notice better sleep or more energy.
- In each visit, you learn small self-care tips to use at home.
