What Is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a modern acupuncture technique. Thin, sterile needles are placed directly into myofascial trigger points, the tight bands or "knots" in a muscle that cause pain, restricted movement or pain that spreads to other areas. No medication is injected, which is why it is called "dry." The needle triggers a local healing response, improves blood flow and helps reset how your nervous system responds to pain.
