Dry Needling
Experience relief from muscle pain and tension with Dry Needling at Menness Clinic.
This effective treatment involves the insertion of fine needles into trigger points to release tension and stimulate healing.
Undertanding Trigger Points
Trigger points are sensitive areas of tight muscle fibers that can cause pain and discomfort.
These knots form when muscles fail to relax, often due to stress, injury, or overuse. Trigger points can lead to referred pain, which is pain felt in other parts of the body.
How is it different from acupuncture?
While both Dry Needling and Acupuncture use fine needles, they differ in their approaches and purposes.
Dry Needling focuses on relieving muscle pain and tension by targeting specific trigger points within the muscle tissue, primarily used in physical therapy and performed by orthopedists.
