Dry Needling

Pain  |  Function  | Healing

Dry needling involves the use of a filament needle in the treatment of musculoskeletal and nerve related pain.  Dry needling has been shown to be effective in improving pain control and reducing muscle tension and is most effective when combined with manual therapy interventions including spinal manipulation.  

We believe effective dry needling does not have to be uncomfortable for the patient and that the most thorough and effective treatment addresses:
​
- Trigger points
- Tendons
- Ligaments
- Musculotendinous junctions
- Tendon-bone attachments
- Peri-neural structures
