Cool.
One gave a day's worth of significant right arm pain relief, now repeating it each day.
A mental model I've found useful: think of your trigger point as a bank balance that's in a deficit state. If you only treat it when it's painful, and only enough so that it stops being painful, then it may remain in a deficit state indefinitely. If you continue treating it even after it seems better, and you cut down on or stop activities that seem to make it worse for a good while, then you have a chance of eliminating it entirely (or at least bringing it to a much nicer equilibrium state).
It may be good to periodically test activities out on your trigger points to see if you're making progress though. Another thing about trigger point is they really can be hard to identify, so in addition to finding good habitual massage patterns, you also want to be searching for novel ways to massage under, around, etc. your muscles and in nooks and crannies near your joints and whatnot to see what you discover. You might also find it interesting to massage a muscle while it's not being flexed and someone else slowly moves it through its range of motion.
I have a lot to say about trigger points if people want to read it.
Discussion of buckling-spring keyboards, which give accurate tactile feedback. You can get them for about $70, and a lot of people swear by them.
Here's my RSI story: Some years ago, I was getting a lot of pain in my right elbow, presumably as + result of excessive Blockout (3D tetris), counted crosstitch, and being polite for no good reason to someone I was very angry at when I was under stress. Rest was not helping. I remember needing to sign a bunch of checks, and using my right hand for the signatures and my left for the account numbers, and it was still hard on my elbow.
The Way of Energy is an excellent introduction to Taoist standing meditation. I worked up to being able to do twenty minutes of just plain standing and twenty minutes of holding a balloon (arms circled at a little below shoulder level) a day. After mere weeks, my elbow problem went away and never came back. Subjectively, I hit a point in meditation where it became obvious to me that I was using more effort to stand than I needed to, and I could just let go of the excess tension.
