Satellite 📝trigger point is a point that develops inside the referral zone of another point.
The first knot sends sensation into a region; over time that region grows its own 📝taut band and nodule. In 📝Trigger Point Therapy satellites are why the sore spot is not always the place to start. They are pattern findings, not a diagnosis of spread as a medical disease. Releasing the key point often quiets them; if it does not, they are held on their own.
Clients feel it as a second knot "in the path" of the first. Work names both so home care is not only the place that shouts.
