Trigger Point Dry Needling

Trigger points are irritable areas within muscle tissue that take shape of taut bands or knots. Caused by overuse and deconditioning, trigger points are a common pain generator. Dry needles are fine, sterile, and unmedicated needles that are slightly thicker than a strand of hair. When used in trigger point therapy, the taut bands are released, as a result, relieving tension and pain.
