Dry needling to relieve pain

Dry needling is a technique physical therapists use to help relieve pain related to a certain motion you're performing. A dry needle is a solid needle that is inserted into muscles that are causing your pain symptoms. Even though patients don't really feel the needle inserted and there is no medication administered, they can still experience some minor soreness afterward. While it might sound like acupuncture, it isn't, mainly because it's based on Western research and techniques, not Eastern traditional medicine techniques. Normally dry needling is part of a larger treatment plan covered by many insurance companies.

Proven credentials

Unlike many pain clinics, our doctors are all board certified in pain management, and most are fellowship trained as well.
