Dry Needling

Dry needling is an innovative treatment technique often used by chiropractors to address musculoskeletal pain and discomfort. It involves the insertion of thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body known as “trigger points.” These are tight bands of muscle fibers that can cause pain both locally and in distant areas of the body. Unlike acupuncture, which is rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, dry needling is based on modern Western anatomical and neurophysiological principles. The aim is to release these trigger points, reducing pain and improving muscle function. At our clinic, our skilled practitioners utilize dry needling as a part of a comprehensive treatment plan, tailored to meet each patient’s unique needs. When performed by trained professionals, like ours, dry needling is both safe and effective, providing many patients with relief from persistent pain.
