Dry Needling
At Podiatry Health & Wellness, we offer dry needling as an effective treatment to alleviate muscular pain and tension. Our skilled podiatrists use this technique to target trigger points, providing relief from various musculoskeletal conditions and enhancing your overall foot and lower limb health.

What is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a therapeutic technique where thin, sterile needles are inserted into specific muscle areas known as trigger points. These points are tight bands of muscle that can cause pain and restrict movement. By stimulating these areas, dry needling helps to release muscle tension, improve blood flow, and promote healing.
