Have you experienced the dreaded muscle strike before? Perhaps you’ve attempted everything else, and these knots aren’t moving. Well, you’re in luck. That’s where we come in—at Tulsa Spine and Rehab, our use of dry needling has been nothing short of revolutionary for many people in the great city.
What is Dry Needling?
Now, picture this: You have some stubborn muscle knots knotted up so tight they are causing you considerable trouble. Once inside, they are dry-needled—essentially a tiny SWAT team breaking up the party. Our expert therapists place fine needles through your skin in trouble spots so the tension can be released, allowing you to feel back like yourself again.
How Does It Work?
Needles? Really? But it is not as terrifying as you may think. Consider it as your muscles getting the equivalent of a “clean slate.” It enhances blood flow with needles, enabling your body to heal itself. The results are pretty impressive, and this is a far cry from poking around with your fingers crossed, hoping you get lucky.
