Dry needling is a modern, science-based intervention, rooted in western medicine and musculoskeletal diagnoses.   The goal is to disrupt the "pain generator" or "neurological feedback loop" from the brain, allowing the body to reignite the healing process. It is used in the treatment of such musculoskeletal conditions as: neck and back pain (stenosis), osteoarthritis, hip/buttock pain (piriformis syndrome), plantar fasciitis.
