Dry Needling: Understanding the Benefits and Effectiveness with PK Physical Therapy
Here at PK Physical Therapy, we offer services, offering dry needling as one of its many treatment options.
In this blog, we’ll explore what dry needling is, how it works, and the benefits of this treatment for patients.
What is Dry Needling?
The needle is dry, meaning there is no medication or injection, but it is used to activate the healing response of the body.
How Does Dry Needling Work?
The needle is inserted into the muscle to stimulate a release of tension, leading to improved blood flow, reduced pain, and improved function.
The needle also activates the nervous system, which can improve the effectiveness of other physiotherapy techniques, such as manual therapy and exercise.
