Dry needling is a therapeutic technique used by physical therapists to treat muscle pain, tension, and trigger points. It involves inserting thin, solid needles into specific areas of muscle tissue to alleviate discomfort and promote healing. This technique differs from acupuncture, as it focuses primarily on musculoskeletal pain rather than energy flow. The benefits of dry needling include reduced muscle tightness, improved range of motion, enhanced blood flow, and quicker recovery from injuries. It can be particularly effective for conditions like chronic pain, myofascial pain syndrome, and sports injuries. By targeting specific muscle fibers, dry needling helps relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and restore function, providing patients with an effective tool for managing musculoskeletal issues.
