Recreating pain symptoms from PT

Post by Paul D »

Hi I've been having PT over the last three months ,although I think I've made some progress ,the PT still hasn't managed to recreate my urethral /penile pain symptoms during trigger point therapy .Is this esential for the therapy to be effective ? .
Thanks for any replies .

I don't believe it's needed for it to be effective. Most of my penile pain is away without it being recreated.

After about 20 odd sessions mine hadn't either, then one session we found and treated a triggerpoint, that for me, took away most of it.

I can be very frustrating.
