Dry Needling & Acupuncture

Dry Needling and Acupuncture—two powerful, evidence-based therapies that work alongside chiropractic care to resolve pain, promote healing, and improve overall function.

Dry Needling: Targeted Pain Relief and Muscle Rehabilitation

Dry needling is a therapeutic technique that involves inserting fine needles into specific trigger points in muscles, tendons, and fascia. These “trigger points” are often tight, irritated muscle fibers that can cause pain, stiffness, and limited movement.

By stimulating these points, dry needling promotes blood flow, relieves muscle tension, and accelerates healing. It’s especially effective for treating:

  • Chronic muscle pain and tension

  • Sports injuries (e.g., tennis elbow, rotator cuff issues)

  • Back and neck pain

  • Headaches and migraines

  • Plantar fasciitis

  • Joint pain and stiffness

Dry needling helps break the pain cycle by releasing tight muscle bands, reducing inflammation, and restoring normal movement patterns. This therapy can provide quick, long-lasting relief and is often used in conjunction with chiropractic adjustments to address both the structural and soft tissue components of your pain.

Acupuncture: A Holistic Approach to Pain and Wellness

Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese medicine practice that uses fine needles to stimulate specific points on the body. This technique helps balance the body’s energy (Qi) and encourages natural healing processes, targeting both acute and chronic conditions.

Acupuncture is effective for:

  • Pain management (neck, back, knees, hips, and more)

  • Stress reduction and anxiety relief

  • Improving circulation and immune function

  • Enhancing sleep quality

  • Reducing inflammation and muscle stiffness

  • Sports recovery and injury healing

This holistic approach doesn’t just focus on relieving pain—it addresses the root causes of imbalance in the body, promoting overall health and well-being. Acupuncture can be particularly effective for long-term pain management and stress-related conditions.

Why Combine Dry Needling, Acupuncture, and Chiropractic Care?

When combined with chiropractic care, dry needling and acupuncture create a comprehensive treatment plan that targets pain and dysfunction from multiple angles. Chiropractic adjustments restore spinal alignment, improve nervous system function, and support long-term health. Meanwhile, dry needling and acupuncture work directly on soft tissue issues, enhance circulation, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain. Together, these therapies provide a more holistic approach to healing and wellness.
