Dry needling is a treatment based on Western medical principles and performed using acupuncture needles. Dy needlign can be used as part of naprapathic treatment or massage to relieve muscle tension and pain.

​

During the treatment, a thin needle is inserted into a trigger point an area of muscle fibers that is in a shortened and tight state.

Trigger points often feel like sore and tender “knots” in the muscle. The needle stimulates the trigger point from the inside, boosting its metabolism and initiating the healing process.

Dry needling is an effective method especially for long-term neck and shoulder pain. It can also support the treatment of various overuse injuries, such as tennis elbow or runner’s knee.
