So excited to have him join Healing House!
Here is some info on dry needling!
WHAT IS DRY NEEDLING?
Dry needling is the insertion of sterile, single use acupuncture needles directly into myofascial (muscular) trigger points. Trigger points are composed of multiple tight contraction knots within the muscle which cause and contribute to pain within the body.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Pioneering studies have shown that inserting needles into trigger points causes biomechanical changes which alleviate pain. It is essential to elicit local "twitch" responses within the muscle, which is the first step to breaking the pain cycle and releasing tight points within muscles.
WHAT CAN DRY NEEDLING TREAT ?
Dry needling can be used to treat a variety of musculoskeletal problems.
Examples of conditions which can be treated successfully with dry needling are:
Back and neck pain, including postural problems and tension
Pelvic pain (chronic and acute)
Arm pain(shoulder impingements, tennis or golfer's elbow)
Headaches
Buttock and leg pain (including sciatic pain)
Hamstring strains
Knee pain
Calf tightness or cramps
Scars (hypertrophic/ keloid scars)
