These charts have the original trigger point drawings by Barbara Cummings from Travell and Simon's Myofascial Pain and Dysfunction. Most of the muscles from the original 2 volume set are included. The other popular full color trigger point charts, most often seen in massage offices, are widely advertised as listing "every trigger point in human anatomy". Not true! They don't even list all of the TrP's on the Travell charts much less the original texts!

I use these charts everyday in my massage therapy practice. It is so helpful to be able to look up and compare pain patterns, be reminded of the number of muscles referring to an area, or simply to confirm the location of a specific TrP. No one can remember all of these pain patterns and locations.

Currently this is the cheapest price I've seen for these charts anywhere. Buy them! Your clients and patients will thank you.

Have found these charts an immediate source of information without having to leave my clients side. Excellent reference material!

I couldn't tell from the picture of the product what it was going to look like. The charts are much larger/different than expected. The size is 38" wide by 32 high.

As usual with Travell works, this is a clear and extremely helpful way to see exactly where to go to alleviate your clients' pain. You can do this right at the client's side. Even the most experienced neuro-muscular therapist can benefit from this visual assistance.

Though I did receive my order quickly, Im not happy with the poster at all. Apparently I was wrong to assume these posters would be the same size as other posters I have ordered, but they were not. They are too large for standard poster frames and now I will have to buy expensive custom frames to fit them. Amazon should have posted the details of the posters. Dont let this happen to you, these posters measure 32" x 38"

These are highly valuable resources for all doctors, physical therapists and massage therapists for both diagnostic and patient educational purposes.

The wall charts it was recibed in saved condicion, very quickly. Thanks Amazon

These charts make it much easier to locate trigger points without having to flip through Travell's book. It is a great time saver

Could have drawn the muscles underneith. It doesn't even have all of the muscles like supraspinatus and infraspinatus which are key players in should movement/pain. Don't buy. Mine was a bit damaged in the mail. Paper is thin/crappy also crappy lamination job.
