Dry Needling
Dry needling is a skilled intervention, based on Western Medicine, that uses filiform needles and other apparatus or equipment to stimulate a myofascial trigger point for the evaluation and management of neuromusculoskeletal conditions, movement impairments, and disabilities. “Myofascial trigger points” are an irritable section of soft tissue often associated with palpable nodules in taut bands of muscle fibers.

The McKenzie Method is a biopsychosocial system of musculoskeletal care emphasizing patient empowerment and self-treatment. This system of diagnosis and patient management applies to acute, subacute and chronic conditions of the spine and extremities. It offers a reliable and practical approach that focuses on “what patients need” and not on “what therapists want to do”. Backed by years of research, evidence and clinical practice.
