Dry Needling
Dry needling is a therapeutic technique that involves inserting thin needles into specific trigger points in muscles or soft tissues. It’s often used to relieve pain and improve muscle function.
Discover relief from muscle pain and dysfunction with our Trigger Point Dry Needling service, which involves:
- Small Filament-Type Needles: We use specialized, small filament-type needles to precisely target and release tight muscles, reducing pain and dysfunction.
- Deactivation of Trigger Points: Dry needling deactivates and reduces the sensitivity of myofascial trigger points, providing lasting relief and improved muscle function.
- Stimulation of Healing Response: By stimulating a healing response in the affected tissue, dry needling promotes natural recovery and enhances overall muscle health.
- Reduction of Biomechanical Stress: Our approach aims to reduce biomechanical stress on treated muscles, improving their function and reducing discomfort.
- Treatment for Myofascial Pain Syndrome: Whether your myofascial pain syndrome is acute or chronic, regional or generalized, our skilled practitioners can help address the underlying causes and provide effective relief.
- Targeting Trigger Points: Trigger points, which are painful spots in muscles or fascia unrelated to injury or inflammation, are expertly targeted during dry needling sessions to alleviate discomfort and tension.
