ChiroStrength Dry Needling in Nashville, TN

Dry needling uses thin, solid needles inserted into the skin and muscle to help stimulate a healing response. It’s rooted in western medicine, though it can look similar to acupuncture. At ChiroStrength, we use it to help with muscle tightness, strains and sprains, recovery, and reducing swelling.

Dry needling isn’t for everyone, and it’s normal to feel a little unsure about it beforehand since it does involve needles. Dr. Dunaway will walk you through what to expect so nothing catches you off guard. Most people are surprised at how relaxed they feel afterward, even if the first treatment takes some getting used to.

Dry needling is commonly used to help with:

• Trigger points and muscle knots

• Tendinopathies like plantar fasciitis and elbow tendonitis

• Shoulder pain and rotator cuff dysfunction

• Neck pain and tension headaches

• Chronic low back pain

Research on dry needling is still evolving, but it’s become one of the more effective tools we use for muscle tightness and recovery. It’s typically used along with your adjustment during a regular visit with Dr. Dunaway.
