DRY NEEDLING SEMINAR
Wednesday, March 12 | 6:45 PM | Movement Studio | Free

Dry needling is a treatment technique that uses thin, solid needles to target tight areas, or "trigger points," within muscles. Unlike acupuncture, which focuses on energy flow, dry needling is rooted in Western medicine and aims to relieve muscle pain and improve mobility. A trained therapist carefully inserts the needle into the muscle or tissue, which helps release muscle tension, improve blood flow, and promote healing in the area.

Dry needling provides several benefits to patients. By releasing tight muscle knots, it can reduce pain, improve range of motion, and increase flexibility. Many people experience quick relief, sometimes even after just one session, although a series of treatments may be necessary for lasting results. Because it directly targets areas of tension, dry needling can be an effective option for managing chronic pain, sports injuries, and muscle soreness.

Dry needling can treat a variety of conditions, especially those that involve muscle tightness or chronic pain. It's commonly used to help people with neck and back pain, headaches, shoulder pain, tennis elbow, and knee pain. Athletes often benefit from dry needling as it can speed up recovery times and help prevent injuries by reducing muscle tightness and improving function. Patients with conditions like fibromyalgia, myofascial pain syndrome, or even plantar fasciitis may also find relief through dry needling. Overall, it's a versatile therapy that can play a crucial role in helping people manage pain and regain mobility.
