Dry needling often complements other treatment processes. However it can also be used individually on many forms of conditions. Dry Needling involves multiple advances of a filament needle into the muscle region of a “trigger point”. The aim is to achieve a local twitch response to release muscle tension and pain. It may be helpful with the treatment of both acute and chronic neuromuscular conditions.
