Dry Needling
Pain Relief, Mobility, and Faster Recovery
Dry needling is a highly effective, evidence-based treatment used by licensed physical therapists to relieve muscle tension, reduce pain, and restore normal movement. Using a thin, solid filament needle, trigger points, tendons, and muscle can be targeted to improve mobility, decrease pain, and restore your body's nervous system to be able to perform.
Unlike acupuncture, dry needling is rooted in modern orthopedic and sports medicine and is designed to address the source of your pain - not just the symptoms. Dry needling is especially effective for chronic pain, stubborn injuries, and areas that haven't responded well to stretching or manual therapy alone.
Dry needling is often combined with manual therapy, strength training, mobility work, retraining to create long-lasting results - not just temporary relief.
