Shoulder Trigger Point Injections: Find 5 Common Entry Points

Shoulder trigger point injections require a clear understanding of the underlying anatomy and careful identification of each injection site.

In this clinical demonstration, I walk through the shoulder trigger point injection technique for five commonly treated muscles: the upper trapezius, levator scapulae, rhomboid major, supraspinatus, and infraspinatus. You’ll see how I palpate and mark the anatomical landmarks, identify potential trigger points, and approach each location based on the patient’s anatomy.

I also demonstrate the local twitch response, the star and peppering techniques, and positioning strategies that can make important shoulder-girdle structures easier to identify.
