- Distinction between trigger points located in the middle portion of the muscle belly (central trigger points) and those located in a region of muscle attachment (attachment trigger points).
- A chapter that presents a new understanding of the nature of Trigger Points. It also considers the role of Trigger Points in the family of syndromes related to occupational overloads of muscles.

- This edition marks the transition of the trigger point concept from the status of a syndrome of unknown causes of disease to that of an experimentally established neuromuscular disease entity.
- Addresses the close interaction between Trigger Points and articular (somatic) dysfunctions and calls attention to that relationship in practically every chapter.
- Emphasis is now shifting from pain as the cardinal feature of a trigger point to increased muscle tension and its consequences.
