DRY NEEDLING
Take back control with TrueFix Physical Therapy. High quality, consistent, and individualized care is the foundation of our company, and what we pride ourselves on the most.
What is dry needling? Let us break it down.
The Problem
When the human body sustains an injury or is misused, muscles and the nervous system can undergo changes.
These changes = pain and dysfunction for you.
They often present as knots in your muscles and/or a disconnect between your brain and the muscle itself, which often leads to weakness/dysfunction.
A Solution: Dry Needling
Through extensive evaluation, we are able to identify muscles that demonstrate signs and symptoms of these changes.
Once we identify the particular muscle, we take an extremely thin needle and insert it directly into the identified tissue.
The Result
Increased blood flow
Decreased banding (tightness)
Decreased spontaneous electrical activity
Biochemical changes
Central nervous system changes
Improved mobility, so that you can express your joints through greater ranges of motion. Whether that’s rotating your shoulder during a golf swing or flexing your hip while you’re picking up your grandchildren.
Increased strength, so that you can increase your performance in your daily and recreational activities.
LESS PAIN, SO THAT YOU CAN GET BACK TO BEING YOU
Dry needling is a service that our clients can take advantage of during a full physical therapy session or as a stand alone “a la carte” service. All new patients are required to undergo a full initial evaluation prior to using dry needling as a stand alone service so that we may get to know your history and make sure this is a treatment that is appropriate for you.
