Dry Needling FAQs

We understand that you need to be able to move freely and without pain, and we're committed to helping you do that. One of the ways we can do that is through dry needling. If you haven't experienced this before, it can help reduce pain and inflammation to encourage healing, so you can feel more like yourself again. Here's what you need to know.

What Is Dry Needling?

Dry needling focuses on using small needles that are carefully inserted into trigger points. Chiropractors may use this technique by itself, or in combination with other treatments, and it can make a difference in how many patients feel when they need relief from pain and to be able to move more comfortably again. There's no reason to be in pain, when you have options to reduce or eliminate it.

How Does It Work to Help Reduce Pain?

When you have pain, it might be caused by inflammation and irritation of the nerves or by tight muscles and supporting structures. With dry needling, the trigger points in those areas may be relaxed and that can lead to relaxation of everything around them as well. Then the irritation and inflammation may be reduced and you may experience less pain.

Can It Help with Relaxation?

While dry needling is primarily for pain, it can also help relieve stress. That's due to the relaxation of muscles, tendons, and ligaments, which can help you feel better and have less tension in your body. Having less stress can not only help you get more done in your daily life, including at work, but it can also help you get involved in hobbies again and enjoy more of what the world has to offer.
