Dry Needling uses precise placement of single use, sterile acupuncture needles to deactivate myofascial trigger points and break up myofascial bands. A trigger point is a local band of tight, irritable and dysfunctional muscle tissue. This often emerges because of injury, overuse or poor movement patterns. This form of treatment helps to alleviate pain as well as restore normal muscle function and increase range of motion.
Dry Needling is used to assist in treating several musculoskeletal conditions including; headaches, shoulder/rotator cuff pain, tennis/golfers elbow, low back pain, sciatic/IT band pain, plantar fasciitis, and much more!
