Dry needling

A targeted intervention on tension points within the muscle (trigger points).

Dry needling is an effective treatment method used to relieve muscle spasms, reduce pain and improve mobility. By targeting muscle knots, it improves blood circulation, speeds up tissue repair and activates the body’s self-healing process.

A thin, filiform needle is inserted through the skin into the fascia, muscle and ligaments — this balances the connections between nerves and muscles.
