HOW IT WORKS

The three main components of Trigenics are referred to as the Trigencs Triad

1. Applied pressure to a myopoint (pressure point)

2. Muscle activation performed by the patient against the therapist's resistance

3. Patient respiration exercises (Autogenic Breathing)

These three components are applied simultaneoulsy for a synergistic effect resulting in immediate benefit.

The cumulative result of a short series of Trigencs Treatments is sustained relief and recovery.

Trigenics treatments mainly activate specific neuromuscular reflexes, which are used to dramatically induce the muscular relaxation response of a muscle in spasm.  The patient is an active participant in his recovery with this treatment through the breathing exercises and the muscle contractions against resistance.
