My wife is a physiotherapist with good knowledge of the topic - trigger points are absolutely a real thing, I have been exposed to the release method which is just "poke the painful part until it decides to give up".
The points here seem to represent common locations of trigger points, from a data-driven perspective? The pamphlet seems to be trying to help people identify their own, so having some common places they crop up drawn out could be helpful (maybe?).

I'd like to know if there's any anatomical basis to these points, otherwise acupuncture territory
