Decrease pain, increase range of motion and improve function!
“Dry needling has been shown to immediately increase pressure pain threshold (PPT) and range of motion, decrease muscle tone, and decrease pain in patients with musculoskeletal conditions.”

What is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is safe, minimally discomforting and often an effective technique for patients with certain musculoskeletal presentations. Dry needling is a treatment performed by skilled, trained physical therapists, certified in the procedure. A thin monofilament needle penetrates the skin and treats underlying muscular trigger points for the management of neuromusculoskeletal pain and movement impairments.
