Dry Needling for Pain, Muscle Tightness, & More
Sometimes your muscles just need a little relief.
Dry needling therapy is another tool in the PT toolbox. We use dry needling to treat pain and movement impairments. The technique uses dry needles inserted into trigger points to target certain muscle groups, helping them relax and accelerate healing and recovery.

how does dry needling help my pain?
Dry needling targets trigger points that disrupt muscle function and hinder range of motion, mobility, or cause tenderness and pain. These trigger points or “muscle knots” are uncomfortable and often disrupt your ability to move freely and perform at your best.
Dry needling therapy increases blood flow, reduces inflammation, decreases muscle tightness, and thus, helps to ease pain.
