For Lovelock, NV patients
What is Trigger Point Injections, and how it helps Lovelock patients
Trigger-point injections release the tight, painful knots in muscle tissue that don't let go with massage or stretching alone. A small amount of local anesthetic is injected directly into the trigger point, which deactivates the knot and lets the surrounding muscle relax, often providing relief that lasts long after the anesthetic wears off.
Lovelock patients with chronic neck, upper-back, and shoulder pain, especially desk workers and drivers, often have a handful of repeat-offender trigger points that flare every few months. We map them on your first visit and only inject the ones that are actively driving symptoms.
Most appointments take 15–20 minutes and you walk out the door. There's usually some local soreness for a day or two, then a noticeable drop in baseline tension. We pair injections with movement and posture coaching so the same knot doesn't keep coming back.
Injections are never our only tool. If you're getting them somewhere else every month with no plan to graduate you out of them, that's a red flag worth asking about.

My old chiropractor was is town and he said my posture is so much better since a few years ago! He truly cares for his patients and has a great personality too! Always willing to help and get u in immediately as soon as possible if you have an emergency!”
“Dr. Kyle is very knowledgeable and compassionate. Whenever I vacation in the area I stop in a time or two for much needed adjustments. He listens, addresses your concerns and really makes a difference. His staff is amazing, helpful, friendly and very well organized. This is not your ordinary chiropractic, yes they do some ordinary, if it’s all you need. But if you have more severe issues the dr. Has degrees for more intense care and does an amazing job fixing your problems. And has the knowledge to know when you need something more.”
“Daisy is outstanding! She brings life to the office! Michelle is awesome! I highly recommend her! Dr. Haakenson is amazing with what he does! I haven’t met a more personable and outgoing chiropractor than himself.”
“Absolutely one of the best experiences I have had with a chiropractic office. I have had chronic pain most of my adult life and have been treated on and off pretty regularly. Dr. Hanford took the time to get to know me, worked to find the root of my issues and didn't just treat the symptoms. Relief was immediate but the lasting results were that he was helpful in educating me on my posture, daily life and exercise routine. I am glad to know and to trust him.”
