Dry Needling

Used to decrease tightness and pain in muscles. A monofilament needle is inserted into the muscle to create a twitch response- releasing chemicals that restore the muscle to its normal resting tone, and decrease pain. Muscles can then be re-educated to function properly and pain-free.
