    What the heck causes them ?

    Had several this year, in both thighs, some soreness above the knees and a sore point below the knee where it doesn’t even seem to be close to a muscle.

    Bought the foam roller, one of those trigger point rollers and a ‘stick’, which have all worked quite well.

    What causes them – bad diet, not exercising enough, exercising too much, radiation from the mobile phone in my pocket ?

    Anybody got any idea – or got a recommendation for a good ‘self-help’ book on the subject ?

    What causes them – nobody knows. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a liar. Lots of people dispute their existence

    Is pretty good for an introduction to the subject, not too techy

    If on the off chance you’re anywhere near Woking area happy to lend you my copy, think I may have another decent book on the subject somewhere as well

    Yes, I do live nr Woking, but I’ve ordered it now!

    Any more recommendations would be good though 🙂

    Nearly rolled out the latest one on my right hip – those trigger point rollers are very good, if a little too painful 🙁

    The other book I have found to be useful – written more for bodyworks practitioners than as a self-treatment guide but still OK to read
