This technique uses thin, specialized needles to target trigger points areas of tight muscle fibers that cause discomfort and restrict movement. If you’re looking for a proven solution for muscle-related issues, dry needling at North Andover Chiropractic could be the key to lasting relief.

How This Therapy Helps You

Dry needling uses thin needles inserted directly into the trigger points to stimulate a local healing response, increase blood flow, and release tension in the affected areas. This helps break the cycle of tightness and discomfort, promoting relaxation and improving muscle function. Unlike acupuncture, which follows traditional Chinese medicine principles, dry needling is based on modern science and focuses on treating musculoskeletal issues.
