What Is Dry Needling?
Dry needling uses ultra-thin, sterile needles to target myofascial trigger points, the “knots” or hyperirritable spots in muscle tissue that can cause local or referred pain. By gently inserting needles into these trigger points, we stimulate a healing response that helps the muscle release and function more efficiently.
Important Note: Dry needling is not the same as acupuncture. While both use similar tools, dry needling is based on modern Western anatomical and neurological principles, focusing on muscle dysfunction and pain pathways.
What Can Dry Needling Help With?
Dry needling is an evidence-based treatment for a variety of conditions, including:
- Chronic muscle tightness
- Neck and back pain
- Tension headaches and migraines
- Sciatica and nerve-related pain
- Tendonitis and overuse injuries
- Plantar fasciitis
- TMJ dysfunction
- Postural strain and athletic recovery
How Does It Work?
When a needle is inserted into a trigger point, it causes a localized twitch response which is a brief contraction of the muscle that leads to release. This can:
🧠 Decrease pain by disrupting pain signals
💪 Improve blood flow and oxygen to the tissue
🔄 Restore healthy muscle tone and mobility
⚡ Accelerate healing by stimulating the nervous system
What to Expect During a Session
- Treatment Time: Most sessions last 15–30 minutes
- Sensation: You may feel a quick twitch, pressure, or mild soreness similar to post-workout fatigue
- Recovery: Many patients feel relief after just 1–2 sessions, especially when combined with chiropractic or physical therapy
- Customization: We tailor each session to your condition, pain level, and treatment goals
Amplify Your Recovery
Dry needling is often integrated into a broader care plan that may include chiropractic adjustments, physical therapy, red light therapy, or movement retraining designed to treat the root cause, not just the symptom.
