Body Elite Physical Therapy offers dry needling to treat tendonitis and other common muscle pains. Dry needling works in conjunction with other treatments to help deactivate myofascial trigger points and reduce pain. Unlike acupuncture, dry needling is only for treating specific trigger points in a muscle or tendon. Dry needling involves the insertion of a needle into the skin and muscle at the trigger point. The therapist pulls the needle in and out of the trigger point to deactivate and release it. At Body Elite Physical Therapy, we ensure the use of new, sterile needles, and use this treatment for a variety of pains. While dry needling is a procedure invasive to the skin, it is mostly painless. Patients in and around Stephens City, VA, looking to try dry needling can contact our clinic for more information.
