What is Functional Dry Needling?
Functional dry needling is a skilled intervention that uses a thin, filiform (non-hollow core) needle to release trigger points, re-educate muscle and improve movement. This results in decreased pain, improved muscle activation and decreased movement impairments.
Who Can Benefit From Dry Needling?
Your physical therapist will review your current and past medical conditions and determine if functional dry needling can safely be performed on a per-patient basis. It can be used to treat a variety of myofascial pain conditions.

Heel pain is usually caused by stress on the growth plate, causing inflammation. It can occur in one or both feet and is known as Sever’s disease, which is the most common cause of heel pain in children. The good news is that Sever’s disease is treatable and usually does not cause any long-lasting damage. Our therapists can help with any heel pain caused by Sever’s disease.
