DRY NEEDLING
​​
Dry needling is a skilled manual therapy intervention where a solid but thin filament needle is inserted into the skin and muscle directly at a myofascial trigger point to normalize the muscle and diminish pain.
​
What is a trigger point? It is a hyperirritable area that can be found as a taut band in muscle that may be painful with compression, stretch, or activity.
​
Benefits from dry needling may be immediate, but for longer lasting effects multiple treatments may be necessary
​
Some soreness may be expected <48hrs, stretching, ice, or heat are recommended.
