Medical Acupuncture:
Medical Acupuncture, also known as dry needling, is used for the treatment of muscular or myofascial pain.
The technique involves specific insertion of sterile single use acupuncture needles to cause stimulation of a muscle. The needles stimulate neurophysiological mechanisms and causes reflex relaxation of muscles.
Overactive muscles, trigger points and muscle pain respond well to dry needling. Medical Acupuncture is useful to target concerns such as muscle pain, muscle trigger points, joint pain, back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain and headaches.
