Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT) was made popular by Paul St. John and it is a massage modality that focuses on the treatment of trigger points. They are called trigger points because they refer pain to another part of the body. Trigger points are painful points located within taut bands of muscle, hypertonicity, and are treated primarily with the application of sustained, usually static pressure. Sometimes this is referred to as ischemic pressure and can vary from very light to heavy depending on the stage of development of the trigger point. Through the softening of trigger points, NMT aims to reduce chronic pain, increase range of motion, and correct postural distortions.

You most likely have trigger points on the muscles in your arms and shoulders. Trigger points are small knots in the muscle that cause pain either in the are of the trigger point or (more likely) in areas further down the arm. See "The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook" by Clair Davies. I found it on Amazon and have been amazed at the difference it has made in me.
