Dry Needling
Dry needling is an effective technique used to treat neuromuscular dysfunction that is causing pain or loss of motion. The technique uses a small, thin, solid needle inserted through the skin into areas of the muscle known as trigger points.
The goal is to relieve pain locally or referred into another area, and/or to improve range of motion. Dry Needling is one technique that compliments a larger, comprehensive treatment plan. Patients who receive treatment often report immediate pain relief and see an improvement with movement and focus.
Therapists who use Dry Needling as a treatment approach are specifically trained in the technique and have met Illinois requirements for Dry Needling certification. Ask your therapist if treatment is an appropriate compliment to your physical therapy.
