Dry needling is a treatment method used to relieve muscle pain and improve movement. At Advanced Chiropractic & Wellness in Stillwater, OK, we provide this therapy to help patients recover from injuries, reduce muscle tightness, and enhance overall well-being. The technique involves inserting thin, sterile needles into specific muscle areas to target trigger points and promote healing. Many patients find dry needling helpful as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.

How Dry Needling Works

The procedure targets tight muscles that may be causing pain or limiting mobility. Inserting needles into these areas can release knots and improve blood flow. This process helps reduce inflammation and encourages the muscles to relax. Dry needling is often used alongside chiropractic care and physical therapy to maximize benefits and support recovery.

Conditions Treated

Dry needling is effective for a variety of musculoskeletal problems. It can be used to treat back pain, neck pain, shoulder issues, and repetitive strain injuries. Athletes often use it to recover from muscle fatigue and improve performance. Many patients also find relief from headaches and joint pain through this therapy.

What to Expect During Your Session

During a session, our chiropractor will identify tense muscles and insert fine needles and combine with E-STEM. This therapy causes the trigger points to relax. Sessions typically last between 15 and 30 minutes and can be adjusted based on individual needs.
