Frequently Asked Questions

How does Intramuscular Stimulation (Dry needling) work?

Intramuscular Stimulation releases tight muscles and relieves pressure on tendons, joints, and nerves by inserting fine needles into the muscle. This activates the muscle's reflexes leading to relaxation, better blood circulation, and restoration of normal function.

Both use fine needles. Acupuncture’s needle placement is defined according to Eastern Medicine principles while dry needling’s core philosophies lie in understanding human anatomy and neurology. The process of dry needling works to diagnose and treat pain from its neuropathic origin. 

I’ve had acupuncture before. How will this be different?

The number of treatments required depends on an individual’s condition. Generally, if the pain or injury is recent, it may only need 2 therapy sessions. Factors like age and general health status may affect the length of treatment too. Typically Intramuscular Stimulation therapy is performed once every 2 weeks.

How many treatments do I need?

Upon treatment, a tiny aching sensation might be felt when the needle is inserted into the affected muscles. The treatments are fairly short and for most cases, it is generally painless afterward but some patients may experience soreness for a day or two after their therapy.

Is it going to be painful?
