Dry Needling Could Decrease Your Pain Symptoms.
If you are suffering from pain or dysfunction, you are not alone; more than 50 million adults suffer from chronic pain each year. Thankfully, Dry Needling is available to you for pain relief.
If you are not familiar with this therapy and its multiple health benefits, know that it is one of the many treatment options available at Insync Wellness. It is a technique for reducing pain and enhancing mobility while also releasing muscular tension.
About Dry Needling
While it is a popular misconception, it is not acupuncture. Although there are some parallels between the two therapy procedures, dry needling is based on western medical and research approaches.
This therapy simply creates an environment that promotes the body’s ability to heal while also reducing discomfort. A sterilized needle is inserted between the skin and the damaged tendons, ligaments, or muscles to relieve pain, reduce muscular tension, and increase movement.
