The above exercise is designed to be performed under the instruction of a licensed physical therapist. WHY CONSIDER DRY NEEDLING? Dry needling is a modern treatment designed to easemuscular pain. During dry needling, a practitioner inserts several filiform needles into your skin. Filiformneedles are fine, short, stainless steel needles that don’t inject fluid into the body. That’s why the term “dry” is used. Dry needling may provide relief for some muscular pain and stiffness. In addition, easing the trigger points may improve flexibility and increase range of motion. Dry needling is therefore a very effective means of addressing a wide range of acute and chronic conditions that cause pain or hinder mobility, and is suitable for treating a number of musculoskeletal dysfunctions, such as: back and neck pain; hamstring problems; headaches; muscular tightness; shin splints; and sporting injuries.
