Dry Needling (DN) has introduced new possibilities for enhancing tissue healing and reducing pain. By inserting thin monofilament needles into muscles, tendons, fascia, nerves, ligaments, and scar tissue, we can target deeper anatomical structures. When combined with electrical stimulation, DN has been shown to induce biomechanical, chemical, vascular, and endocrine changes in problematic tissue.

In simple terms, dry needling with electrical stimulation alters your body’s pain perception neurologically and corrects the local chemical triggers of pain.

What can you treat with dry needling?

A range of conditions can be addressed, including tendonitis, overuse injuries, scar tissue, headaches, migraines, sprains, strains, muscle spasms, tightness, trigger points, chronic pain, arthritis, impingement, nerve compression, nerve entrapment, carpal tunnel syndrome, osteoarthritis, tendinopathies, rotator cuff pain, plantar fasciitis, and more.
