Dry Needling
Increase Healing & Restoration While Reducing Pain
What is Dry Needling?
Pain is a response to dysfunction. While removing pain is a priority, the highest priority is finding and healing the source of dysfunction. Dry needling is about muscle, tendon, and soft tissue restoration. Without restoring function to those tissues, dysfunction will continue and propagate further damage to the surrounding areas.
While dry needling isn’t the final and complete answer to healing, it is a significant tool utilized alongside chiropractic, rehabilitative exercise, and anti-inflammatory treatment.
Over 50 years ago, muscle pain referral was found to have strong interaction with muscle and nervous system function. As research has developed, modern dry needling has become a proven method for increasing healing and restoration in tissue while reducing pain.
Not to be confused with acupuncture, dry needling has a different process and purpose that relies on modern medical science and is utilized by several disciplines, including orthopedic, neurological, chiropractic, and pain management physicians.
Dry needling is also a technique used across multiple conditions. It can treat neck, back, hip, heel, arm, and shoulder issues. Essentially, anywhere muscular stress can be identified. Dry needling assists a broad range of individuals, from the athlete to the elderly. Returning to daily function or improving performance, it could be the answer for your acute or chronic issue.
