Trigger Point Dry Needling

Trigger point dry needling is used to manage discomfort and to stimulate muscle function. It is a skilled manual therapy intervention in which a very thin sterile needle is inserted through the skin into the muscle, and is directed into a myofascial trigger point. Inserting a needle in the trigger point will cause a “twitch” of the muscle and eliminate pain being felt in this area.

Reduces Pain

Since trigger points are associated with many different ailments, this treatment can help with a variety of conditions. Dry needling can help patients who suffer from:

  • Neck pain
  • Back painTrigger Point Dry Needling the Arm
  • Headaches
  • Sciatica
  • Tennis elbow
  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Pelvic pain
  • Myofascial pain
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Chronic pain
  • Movement disorders
  • Muscle strains and sprains

Improves Function

Dry needling is a technique used to treat dysfunctions of skeletal muscles, fascia, and connective tissues. It reduces or restores impairments of movements, of function, and body structures. Which leads to improved activity and participation.
