Dry Needling

Dry Needling is a skilled intervention performed with the use of thin monofilament needles to address many musculoskeletal pathologies and pain syndromes. Dry needling is often associated with the treatment of muscular impairments, but is also efficacious in treating ligaments, tendons, subcutaneous fascia, scar tissue, peripheral nerves, and neurovascular bundles. One of the most therapeutic and impactful treatments we offer at OSSPT, dry needling acts through several of the body’s natural physiological mechanisms to reduce pain, enhance healing, and improve movement to assist you in returning to your desired functional activities. Dry needling is most effective when paired with manual therapy, neuromuscular re-education, and corrective exercise for a comprehensive approach to symptom relief.
