Functional Dry Needling

Dry needling offers several benefits by targeting muscle tension, pain, and dysfunction. Here are some key advantages:

• Reduces pain by releasing tension in trigger points (knots in muscles).
• Stimulates the nervous system to release endorphins, natural painkillers.

• Loosens tight muscles, enabling better joint movement.
• Retrains neural pathways to allow elongation of muscles.
• Useful for athletes and individuals recovering from injuries.

• Enhances blood flow to the treated area, promoting healing.
• Helps to 'reset' the muscle.

• Focuses directly on affected muscles for precise relief.
• Helps with many conditions like sciatica, neck pain, and lower back pain.

• Releases muscle tension and restores normal function.
• Beneficial for postural imbalances and muscle weakness; provides a 'reset' for the muscle.

• Works well in combination with physical therapy techniques like stretching, strengthening exercises, and manual therapy.

• Muscle strains
• Tendonitis
• Headaches and migraines
• Sports injuries
• Muscle spasms 
• Limited mobility/ ROM

Dry needling is a safe and effective tool when performed by a trained physical therapist.
