Dry Needling

What Is Dry Needling?

Dry needling is a specific technique used to treat trigger point pain and myofascial (muscle pain).  Other terms commonly used to describe dry needling are orthopedic acupuncture, trigger point dry needling, and intramusclular manual therapy.

Is Dry Needling Right For You?

Dry Needling is NOT for everyone.

Our goal isn’t to fit you into a specific treatment, procedure, or therapy. It’s to determine which treatment options can get you the best results possible.

Medical history, duration of symptoms, severity of symptoms, loss of function,  treatment goals, and other factors have to be evaluated.

Not sure where to start? 

Schedule a Free Health Assessment Call. We’ll learn more about what you’re experiencing, answer your questions, and help determine whether dry needling or other treatment options we offer could help you.

I had microdiscectomy surgery on my low back to help repair damage to my lumbar spine. Although the surgery did help, I still have low back pain that occasionally goes down my right leg.  I am not a surgical candidate right now nor do I want to have another one so I decided to try acupuncture to help reduce some of my pain symptoms.  It has made a positive improvement for me.  The acupuncture seems to reduce the frequency and severity of...
