Dry needling is a therapeutic treatment procedure that involves a thin, solid needle to manipulate various tissues in the body.
 
The goal of the procedure is to encourage a change in how the muscle is activated and to "re-boot" your nervous system. This may include relaxing a tight muscle or activating a weak muscle.

Dry needling is an effective treatment for acute and chronic pain, rehabilitation from injury, and even pain and injury prevention, with very few side effects. As a treatment modality it is one of the fastest growing and most effective treatments for a wide variety of pain and movement dysfunctions.
