Acupuncture Dry Needling

Service Description

Medical acupuncture, also known as Western acupuncture or dry needling, is a modern, evidence-based adaptation of traditional acupuncture. It is used by trained healthcare professionals to treat musculoskeletal pain, improve mobility, and support the body’s natural healing mechanisms. Unlike traditional Chinese acupuncture, which is rooted in energy meridians and balance, medical acupuncture focuses on anatomy, physiology, and the nervous system. This technique involves the insertion of very fine, sterile needles into specific trigger points, muscle knots, or areas of dysfunction. These targeted areas are usually located in muscles, fascia, or near nerves that are contributing to pain, tightness, or restricted movement. The process stimulates the nervous system, increases blood flow, and encourages the release of natural pain-relieving chemicals like endorphins and serotonin. Medical acupuncture is particularly effective for treating chronic pain, sports injuries, joint dysfunction, and postural imbalances. It can also help alleviate tension headaches, sciatica, tendonitis, and repetitive strain injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome. Because it works directly with the neuromuscular system, it often delivers fast and noticeable results—sometimes even after just one session.
