Dry Needling

Dry Needling (DN) involves inserting a thin monofilament needle (similar to an acupuncture needle) into symptomatic soft tissue in order to reduce pain, increase circulation, improve range of motion, reduce sensitivity along nerve pathways, and improve function of the neuromusculoskeletal system.  DN is not traditional Chinese Acupuncture, but instead is based on neurology, physiology, and Western medicine principles. DN is a valuable treatment for musculoskeletal pain and is highly effective in the treatment of trigger points and restoring normal neuromuscular function.
