Dry Needling
A targeted option for muscle pain and movement limitations, used when it fits your assessment and goals.
What it is
Dry needling uses thin, sterile needles placed in selected muscle or soft tissue areas after an examination. It may be paired with exercise and other care to help address pain and movement.
Suitability, expected benefit, and possible side effects depend on the person and the area being treated.
What it may help with
We consider dry needling for selected muscle-related pain and movement problems, including some sports injuries and persistent pain presentations. It is one tool in a broader care plan, not a universal solution.
- Muscle pain and tenderness
- Movement limitations related to painful muscles
- Some sports-related muscle complaints
What to expect
Dr. Chris will assess your symptoms, explain the procedure and alternatives, and discuss whether dry needling makes sense for you. A plan may also include exercise, adjustments, or soft tissue care.
