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.
