Best Dry Needling Treatment
Overview
Dry needling is a medical treatment that helps in relieving muscular pain. In this treatment, very fine and short needles are placed at the trigger points in your muscles or tissues. It is a nonfluid needle and thus is known as dry needling. It is usually performed by a skilled and trained physiotherapist.
Benefits
Dry needling is best for relieving muscle pain and stiffness. It inactivates trigger points and restores function and thus regains your range of motion. It is very helpful in chronic pain conditions. It is often used to treat sports injuries, muscle pain, etc.
