This method is successfully used for treating myofascial pain. The technique’s other name is intramuscular manual therapy.

The method is based on the Western medicine principles and a huge amount of modern research on neuroanatomy, nervous and musculoskeletal systems, myofascial syndrome, and the phenomenon of trigger points.

Dry needling allows the doctor to deactivate the trigger point quickly, reducing or eliminating the pain, which, in turn, increases the range of movement and reduces muscle tension.

This technique is the best option for treating sciatic nerve neuralgia, piriformis syndrome, and trigger points. It is also used to treat muscle spasms, overtraining injuries, pain in thighs and knees, fibromyalgia, tendinitis, acute and chronic pain, sciatic nerve syndrome, and other neuromuscular disorders.
