Dry Needling is a specific needling technique that is based on neuroanatomy and myofascial trigger point therapy that is used with thin filiform needles without the injection of a solution. Dry Needling consists of rapid, short-term needling to altered or dysfunctional tissues to improve or restore function. This may include (but is not limited to) the needling of the myofascial trigger points, periosteum, and connective tissues.
