Dry Needling is a technique used to release tight muscles or trigger points, to help reduce pain and improve range of motion. The needles used are very thin & flexible, similar to acupuncture needles. No substances are injected, hence the term 'dry' needling. Different from acupuncture, the needle is not left in the tissue for a period of time. Instead, the therapist inserts the needles, completes a fanning technique to elicit a 'twitch' response, then the needle is removed.
