To put it crudely, a myofascial trigger point is a localized area of intense pain (when triggered) caused by over-contracted muscle fibres, starved of oxygen & creating a localized energy crisis, where neuroreactive biochemicals are released to sensitize nearby nerves, which, in turn, act on the central nervous system to initiate the motor, sensory, and autonomic effects of myofascial trigger points.
