Dry needling in Bondurant

certified Dry needling specialist

If you’re dealing with muscle tension, pain, or stiffness that just won’t go away, dry needling may help. At Resilience Physical Therapy, we use this effective technique to release tight muscle bands, ease discomfort, and restore your range of motion—so you can get back to moving without pain.

We Begin with a Full Evaluation

Before we begin any treatment, we take time to understand your unique situation. Your first visit includes a full-body movement assessment and a discussion of your symptoms, history, and goals. This lets us determine if dry needling is right for you and how it fits into your overall care plan.

What Is Dry Needling?

Dry needling is a technique that uses a very fine, sterile needle to treat trigger points—tight, overactive spots in your muscles that can cause pain or limit mobility.

By inserting the needle into the affected area, we stimulate the muscle to release tension, improve blood flow, and reduce irritation. This helps restore normal function and relieve pain, often with noticeable results after just a few sessions.

It’s important to note: dry needling is based on anatomy and modern physical therapy science. It’s not acupuncture, although the tools may look similar.

what can dry needling treat?

Dry needling can be effective for a wide range of conditions, including:

• Neck and back pain

• Muscle tightness and soreness

• Headaches and jaw (TMJ) pain

• Shoulder, hip, or knee discomfort
