Dear friend Laser therapy to heel or eliminate the trigger point pain is very effective along with some exercises and stretching but only under proper guidance will definitely help you. So dear you need to visit a good physio for your discomforts.

For trigger points in the scalene muscle you can go for physiotherapy and there are two new techniques to resolve these trigger points One is Dry Needling and the other one is mobilisations with M2T blade... Till then in physiotherapy sessions you can go for TENS / US/ LASER At home you can also do hot fermentations... Take care
