Dry Needling in Jefferson City and Osage Beach
Whether you’re seeking pain relief, greater mobility, or faster healing, we invite you to consider dry needling, one of our most used and successful soft tissue therapies. This modality offers quick relief for a variety of conditions.
Like acupuncture, dry needling uses the same thin needles but goes deep beneath the surface to access areas of tension in the soft tissue.
Experience Targeted Relief
When our brain senses instability or injury, it goes into protective mode, tightening the muscle groups around the specific joint that may be unstable, injured, or inflamed. This protective mechanism forms a trigger point within that muscle group that leads to tension in the muscle, which helps provide stability in the acute pain state.
Unfortunately, those trigger points can cause pain and restrict movement. Using dry needling, our skilled practitioners insert thin needles directly into these points, releasing tension and promoting healing. This process typically takes just 5 to 30 seconds per point, making it a quick and efficient option for pain.
Our use of this therapy goes beyond simple pain relief. We combine this technique with comprehensive chiropractic care, addressing both your immediate discomfort and the underlying causes to restore your body’s natural balance and prevent future issues.
Conditions That Can Be Addressed
This versatile technique addresses a wide range of issues, like:
- Muscle strains and tension
- Tendinitis and bursitis
- Chronic pain conditions
- Headaches and migraines
- Sports injuries
- Symptoms associated with conditions like MS
While the idea of needles may seem intimidating, many patients find dry needling to be surprisingly comfortable, with virtually no side effects. Our experienced practitioners use ultra-thin needles and precise techniques to minimize discomfort while maximizing results.
Once your pain is gone and the inflammation has calmed down, our doctors work to reintroduce joint mobility and stabilizing movements to prevent recurrence.
