Dry Needling

Dry Needling is an effective, evidence-based treatment designed to relieve muscle tension, reduce pain, and restore mobility. Using thin, sterile needles, we target trigger points—tight knots in the muscle that cause pain and restrict movement. Unlike acupuncture, which focuses on energy flow, dry needling works directly on the muscles and soft tissues to release tension and promote healing.

Many patients ask: Does it hurt? The needles used are incredibly thin, and most people feel only a slight pinch or muscle twitch — not the deep ache you might expect. In fact, the relief afterward is often immediate. The muscle releases its tension, allowing for better movement and less pain.

This treatment is especially effective for chronic pain sufferers, athletes recovering from sports injuries, or anyone struggling with muscle tightness that just won’t go away. Dry needling helps jumpstart the body’s natural healing process by improving blood flow and breaking the cycle of pain and muscle spasms.
