Our expertise has created a history of success in serving the Charlotte community with dry needling.

From answering, “What is dry needling?” to learning about the science that shows its efficacy, we’ll answer all your questions.

Understanding Dry Needling

Dry needling uses small, thin needles to treat musculoskeletal pain by sending them deep into your muscle’s trigger points. Knots in your trigger points are a major cause of pain and tension. It differs from traditional acupuncture because it’s a newer practice, doesn’t target pressure points, and utilizes energy-based techniques.

The benefits of dry needling work include the following:

  • Increased mobility: Through reducing inflammation and improving blood circulation, many patients experience a greater range of motion after dry needling.
  • Chronic pain relief: By releasing tension in your trigger points, dry needling can reduce back, joint, and neck pain and help your muscles heal faster.
  • Improved muscle function: By evoking a twitch response, dry needling can improve your flexibility, healing, and strength.

The Science Behind Dry Needling

Trigger point dry needling uses scientific principles and an ample body of evidence to address the pain you feel in your trigger points. Current research finds that dry needling effectively treats the following conditions and more:

  • Tension headaches
  • Piriformis syndrome
  • Sciatica and hip pain
  • Neck and shoulder pain
  • Runner’s Knee
  • IT Band Syndrome

While no treatment offers a 100% success rate, and everyone’s body responds differently to treatment, we use dry needling because of its proven effectiveness in the majority of cases.

Why does the treatment work? By stimulating trigger points, it helps enhance blood flood, which can flush toxins and improve muscle oxygenation and healing. It also releases endorphins, which provide nearly instantaneous natural pain relief.
