Dry Needling Therapy at OrthoRehab Physical Therapy
Relieve Pain. Reduce Muscle Tension. Restore Function.
At OrthoRehab Physical Therapy, we offer Dry Needling Therapy, a highly effective treatment for muscle pain, tightness, and movement dysfunction. Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain, recovering from an injury, or looking to enhance mobility, dry needling can help you find fast and lasting relief.
What is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a minimally invasive therapy that uses thin, sterile needles to target trigger points (knots) in muscles. By stimulating these areas, dry needling helps:
Relieve muscle pain and tightness
Improve blood flow and promote healing
Reduce inflammation and nerve irritation
Restore normal muscle activation and function
Enhance flexibility and range of motion
Unlike acupuncture, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine, dry needling is rooted in modern medical and anatomical principles to treat musculoskeletal conditions effectively.
Conditions Treated with Dry Needling
Dry needling is beneficial for various acute and chronic pain conditions, including:
Neck & Back Pain (Herniated Discs, Sciatica, Muscle Tension)
Sports Injuries (Muscle Strains, Overuse Injuries, Tendinitis)
Headaches & Migraines (Tension & Cervicogenic Headaches)
Shoulder & Rotator Cuff Dysfunction
Plantar Fasciitis & Achilles Tendinitis
TMJ (Jaw Pain & Dysfunction)

What to Expect During a Dry Needling Session
Our expert physical therapists will assess your condition and apply dry needling to the specific muscles and trigger points causing pain and dysfunction. A typical session includes:
✅ Targeted Dry Needling Treatment – Precise needle insertion to release muscle knots and reduce pain.
✅ Manual Therapy & Joint Mobilization – Hands-on techniques to enhance mobility.'
✅ Stretching & Strengthening Exercises – To reinforce proper movement patterns.
