Jaynie, Have you actually been to The International Pelvic Pain Society (IPPS) web site to read the excellent information that is there?

You will find an article about Trigger Point Injections by clicking: "Resources" at the IPPS's homepage, which is found at the following web site:

http://www.pelvicpain.org/

By clicking "Physician Members" you will see the names of Barbara Levy, M.D. and James Weyand, M.D. listed for the state of Washington.
