Fast Relief | Lasting Results | Move Freely Again
Chronic pain doesn't have to be your normal. Whether you're dealing with tension headaches, shoulder tightness, hip pain, or plantar fasciitis, trigger point injections offer a proven, minimally invasive solution to help you feel like yourself again.
At WishLane, we don't just treat symptoms—we listen to your story, understand what's causing your pain, and create a personalized treatment plan to get you moving and living without discomfort.
What Are Trigger Points?
Trigger points are tight, irritable knots that form in your muscles—often as a result of injury, overuse, poor posture, repetitive movements, or chronic stress. When you press on them, they hurt. Sometimes they radiate pain to other parts of your body, making it hard to pinpoint the source.
These knots restrict blood flow, create inflammation, and keep muscles in a constant state of tension. The result? Persistent pain, limited mobility, and a frustrating cycle that traditional treatments like rest, massage, or oral medications often can't fully break.
That's where trigger point injections come in.
Two Treatment Options: Choose What's Right for You
At WishLane, we offer two distinct trigger point injection options. Your provider will recommend the best choice based on your health history, the nature of your pain, and your treatment goals.
Bupivacaine Injections
Best for: Immediate pain relief
How It Works:
Bupivacaine is a local anesthetic that numbs the trigger point and surrounding muscle, breaking the pain-spasm cycle instantly. Think of it like hitting a reset button on the muscle.
What to Expect:
- Instant relief — many patients feel better within minutes
- Effects last 4-6 hours minimum, often longer as the muscle relaxes
- Great for acute flare-ups or when you need quick results
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) Injections
Best for: Long-term healing and regeneration
How It Works:
PRF uses your own concentrated growth factors and healing platelets to repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, and promote long-term recovery. It's regenerative medicine—your body healing itself from the inside out.
What to Expect:
- Not instant relief — healing takes time (results typically seen in 2-6 weeks)
- Longer-lasting benefits as tissue repairs and inflammation decreases
- Ideal for chronic pain, recurring issues, or when you want to address the root cause
Not sure which option is right for you? Don't worry—we'll help you decide. During your consultation, we'll review your health history, discuss your pain timeline, and recommend the best approach for your specific situation.
Conditions We Treat with Trigger Point Injections
Trigger point therapy is effective for a wide range of pain conditions. Here are some of the most common issues we help our patients overcome:
If you're dealing with chronic pain or limited mobility that hasn't improved with other treatments, trigger point injections may be the solution you've been looking for.
What Makes WishLane Different?
Specialized Training in Advanced Injection Techniques
Our providers have completed comprehensive training in joint injections, trigger point therapy, and biologic treatments. This specialized education means precise needle placement, better outcomes, and a higher level of care than you'll find at most clinics.
Personalized Care, Not Cookie-Cutter Treatment
We don't rush you in and out. We take the time to understand your pain history, identify the root cause, and tailor treatment to your specific needs. Every patient is different—your treatment plan should be too.
Both Immediate Relief and Long-Term Healing Options
With both bupivacaine and PRF options, we can address your pain in the way that makes the most sense for you—whether you need fast relief for an acute flare-up or regenerative healing for chronic issues.
What to Expect During Your Treatment
Quick, In-Office Procedure
Most treatments take just 15-20 minutes. You'll be in and out, back to your day.
Minimal Discomfort
You may feel a brief pinch or pressure during the injection, and sometimes a muscle twitch as the trigger point releases. Most patients describe it as tolerable and quick.
Zero Downtime
You can return to your normal activities immediately. No recovery period, no restrictions. Just relief.
Customized Treatment Plan
The number of injection sites and sessions you'll need varies based on your specific condition, how long you've had the pain, and what caused it. Some patients feel significant improvement after one session; others benefit from a series of treatments spaced over time.
Important: Trigger point injections are typically not covered by insurance, as they're considered elective pain management. We price per treatment area to keep costs transparent and predictable.
Is Trigger Point Therapy Right for You?
Trigger point injections may be a great option if you:
- Have chronic muscle pain or tightness that won't go away
- Experience limited mobility or stiffness that affects your daily life
- Haven't found relief from physical therapy, massage, stretching, or oral medications
- Want a minimally invasive option that doesn't involve surgery or long-term medication use
- Are looking for fast relief (bupivacaine) or long-term healing (PRF)
Our team will evaluate your specific situation during a consultation and help determine if trigger point injections are the right fit.
