WHY CONSIDER DRY NEEDLING FOR PAIN RELIEF
Florida now allows, along with more that 40 other States “Dry Needling”. Dry needling is a technique physical therapists use to treat myofascial pain. The technique uses a “dry” needle, one without medication or injection, inserted through the skin into areas of the muscle, known as trigger points. Some dry needling techniques treat a broader landscape of the central nervous system. This is called non-trigger point treatment. Instead of inserting needles only in the area of pain, the practitioner may instead insert needles in areas around but not directly on the point of pain. This technique relies on the idea that pain is the result of a greater nerve or muscular issue. Physical therapists use dry needling with the goal of releasing or de-activating trigger points to relieve pain and/or improve range of motion. Research supports that dry needling reduces pain andmuscle tension, and normalizes dysfunctions of themotor-end-plates, the sites at which nerve impulses are transmitted to muscles. This can help speed up the patient’s return to active rehabilitation. Dry needling may provide relief for muscular pain and stiffness. In addition, easing the trigger points may improve flexibility and increase range of motion. That’s why this method is often used to treat sports injuries, muscle pain, and even fibromyalgia pain.
