What Is Dry Needling?
“Dry Needling is like acupuncture, but it actually goes deeper into the muscle tissue,” Travis explains. “We’re trying to get a response from the muscle – a twitch response – and we’re actually causing a little bit of microdamage to the muscle; to the area. It actually gets a little bit of inflammation, a little bit of increased blood flow to try and help with the healing process of the muscle.”
