Dry Needling Therapy
*DRY NEEDLING THERAPY OFFERED EXCLUSIVELY BY DIRECTOR PIRRENEE STEINERT
What is Dry Needling?
Dry Needling is a therapeutic technique that involves the insertion of thin, solid needles into specific trigger points in the muscles or soft tissues. Unlike acupuncture, which is rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, Dry Needling is based on modern Western medicine principles and anatomy.
How Does it Work?
The primary goal of Dry Needling is to release tight muscle bands, alleviate pain, and improve range of motion. The insertion of needles stimulates trigger points, causing a local twitch response in the muscle. This twitch response helps relax the muscle, release tension, and promote natural healing processes.
