Trigger point therapy is a soft-tissue treatment that aims to release muscle knots and tension to reduce or eliminate pain. Trigger points are tight bands of muscle that can feel like knots or marbles under the skin. They can be tender to the touch and can cause pain in other parts of the body. 

During trigger point therapy, a licensed massage therapist usually applies pressure to the trigger points with their hands or elbows for 30–90 seconds, or until they feel a change in the tissue. The pressure can increase blood flow to the area and send messages to the nervous system to block pain signals.

Russian massage therapy, also known as connective tissue, is a massage technique that originated in the former Soviet Union to enhance athletic performance. The main techniques used in Russian massage are: Stroking, Rubbing, Kneading, and Vibrations.  It's primarily intended to relieve muscle pain and stress and increase circulation.

Reflexology, also known as zone therapy, is a complementary therapy that involves applying gentle pressure to specific points on the feet, hands, or ears to promote wellness and relaxation. Reflexologists believe that these points correspond to different organs and structures in the body, and that massaging them can directly affect the corresponding organ. The goal is to help the body's natural healing process and ease stress.
