What is Dry Needling?
Dry needling involves inserting a thin needle into your skin to stimulate the underlying muscle and connective tissues, called “dry” because it doesn’t involve injecting any medication like steroids or anesthetics. This treatment relieves pain, reduces muscle tension, and improves range of motion without using any drugs.
Determining Candidacy for Dry Needling
The team at MPOWER Physical Therapy determines if you would benefit from dry needling during an evaluation. They may consider you a candidate if you have painful trigger points that impede your rehabilitation, athletic performance, or recovery from a sports injury.
You may be a candidate for dry needling if you have any of the following conditions:
How Dry Needling Therapy Works
During your dry needling session, your physical therapist will insert one or more thin needles into or around your trigger point. They may rotate the needle to induce a muscle twitch, indicating that the treatment is working.
Certified Dry Needling Services
Dry needling must be performed by a physical therapist with a dry needling certification. Call us or book online to schedule an appointment with a certified dry needling physical therapist.
