Dry needling is a therapeutic technique used to relieve pain and muscle tension. This technique involves inserting thin needles into the skin at trigger points (TrP) to release tension in muscles and promote healing. Dry needling can be used to treat a variety of conditions including muscle spasms, back pain, neck pain, headaches, and joint pain.

The benefits of dry needling include improved flexibility, decreased muscle tension, and reduced pain. By targeting trigger points, dry needling can also improve blood flow to affected areas, which promotes healing and reduces inflammation.

The application of dry needling involves inserting needles into the skin at specific trigger points in muscles. The needles are then moved in a back-and-forth motion to release tension and promote healing. Dry needling is a safe and effective technique that can be used alone or in combination with other therapies to provide relief from a variety of musculoskeletal conditions.
