Dry Needling
Technique that helps us treat myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) caused by myofascial trigger points. Through this technique, we will treat these trigger points that cause pain and decrease motor function.
Some of the benefits of dry needling are: local hemorrhage, producing a small bleed that will help reabsorb and eliminate harmful substances that activate pain; local spasm response, destroying affected fibers that cause pain; immediate improvement of pain in the days following treatment; access to tissues that are more complex to address manually; total tissue regeneration without scarring in 48-72 hours.
