Dry Needling
Targeted trigger point therapy for muscle pain relief and recovery.
What is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a modern treatment technique that uses thin, sterile needles to target myofascial trigger points—hyperirritable spots in skeletal muscle associated with pain and dysfunction. Unlike acupuncture, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine meridians, dry needling is rooted in Western medicine and neuroanatomy to directly address muscular pain and tension.
How Does Dry Needling Work?
During dry needling, a thin filiform needle is inserted into myofascial trigger points—tight bands of muscle that cause pain and restrict movement. The needle creates a local twitch response that releases muscle tension, increases blood flow, and triggers the body's natural healing response to reduce pain and restore function.
Who Can Benefit from Dry Needling?
- People with chronic muscle pain
- Those with myofascial trigger points
