Advanced Pain Relief & Muscle Recovery by Certified Experts

At Request Physical Therapy, we specialize in Dry Needling, an advanced therapeutic technique designed to relieve pain, improve mobility, and accelerate muscle recovery. Our practitioners are certified through the American Academy of Manipulative Therapy, ensuring the highest standard of care for our patients.

What Is Dry Needling?

Dry Needling is a science-based treatment that involves inserting fine, sterile needles into trigger points (knots) within muscles. Unlike acupuncture, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine, Dry Needling targets neuromuscular dysfunction to release tension, reduce pain, and promote healing.

How Does Dry Needling Work?

When muscles become overworked or injured, they develop tight bands of fibers known as myofascial trigger points, which can cause pain, stiffness, and restricted movement. Dry Needling helps by:

  • Releasing muscle tightness
  • Reducing inflammation
  • Improving blood flow and oxygenation
  • Stimulating the body's natural healing response

Many patients experience immediate relief and improved range of motion after just one session.
