Get Great Results With Our Dry Needling Service Canyon Sports Therapy is now proud to offer Dry Needling as a viable treatment option for patients. What is Dry Needling: Dry Needling is a skilled technique performed by a physical therapist using thin filiform needles to penetrate the skin and/or underlying tissues to affect change in body structures and functions for the evaluation and management of neuromusculoskeletal conditions, pain, movement impairments, and disability (Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy, May 2015). Physiologically, Dry Needling helps improve blood flow, decrease muscle banding (trigger points), creates biochemical changes and improves central nervous system conductivity. The result is reduced pain, improved range of motion, and restored function. It is used for the treatment of back, neck, shoulder, elbow, hip, knee and ankle pain and dysfunction.
