Trigger points in the scalene muscles are extremely common and are often quite simple to treat especially as they are generally accessible. In most cases trigger points requiring release are located in the anterior (front) scalene, although it is also possible to find active trigger points in the scalenus medius (middle) and scalenus posterior (back).

This short class will help you understand the anatomy of the scalene muscles as they relate to trigger points, including details of referred pain patterns.
