Relieving Muscle Pain with Trigger Point Dry Needling
Trigger point dry needling (TDN) is a technique used to relieve muscle tightness, pain, and dysfunction by inserting thin, sterile needles directly into trigger points—tight knots or bands of muscle fibers that can cause pain and restricted movement. Unlike acupuncture, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine, dry needling is rooted in modern neurophysiology and musculoskeletal science.

Target Pain at the Source
When the needle stimulates a trigger point, it can lead to immediate pain relief, improved mobility, and faster recovery. Dry needling is particularly effective for chronic pain, muscle tightness, sports injuries, and movement restrictions caused by daily activity or past injuries.
