Does dry needling hurt?
You may feel a deep ache, twitch, or brief soreness — but most patients feel looser and calmer within minutes.
Is this the same as acupuncture?
No. Acupuncture is based on Eastern medicine. Dry needling is rooted in modern musculoskeletal science and pain neurology.
Do I need to be needled every visit?
No. We use dry needling only when it’s the most efficient tool for your recovery that day.
Can I work out after?
Usually, yes — but we’ll guide you. Some people feel immediate relief, others may need a short recovery window.
