What Should I Expect?

  • Assessment:  We thoroughly evaluate your complaints, condition and identify problem areas/trigger points contributing to your pain.

  • Needle Application:  We use sterile, disposable monofilament needles which are inserted into trigger points.  The needle should help recreate pain & soreness similar to the symptoms you're experiencing.

  • Treatment:  The position of the needle is refined by your Physical Therapist and then a gentle electrical impulse is applied to the needle which creates a rhythmic twitch.  This twitch helps to release built up tension and tightness in the muscle.

  • Results:  Most clients experience a degree of immediate relief.  While soreness can occur, further relief and decreased symptoms should be felt over the first few days.

  • ​Individualized Treatment Plan:  Your treatment plan is designed specifically for you and updated frequently.  It may include dry needling, soft tissue work, strengthening exercises and even specific advice/coaching on hobbies or habits that contributed to your symptoms.

Experience Resolution & Relief

If you've had symptoms and pain for longer than you'd like to admit, dry needling could be a solution for you.  Needling helps get below the surface and allows us to treat the entire muscle.  It allows us to pinpoint and relieve troublesome trigger points that cause pain and dysfunction.
