Does Dry Needling Treatment Hurt?
Like with any procedure, whether or not you experience pain can differ from person to person. Some patients claim that they don’t feel any pain, while others say they can feel moderate pain in the treated area. Patients also say they can feel instant relief in the muscle, with some tenderness later on.
How does dry needling differ from acupuncture?
Dry needling goes deeper into the targeted and specific muscle and treats localized areas of soft tissue pain.
