Dry Needling in Freehold, NJ: Relieve Muscle Pain & Move Freely
Dry needling is a skilled therapeutic technique performed by certified physical therapists. It involves inserting thin, sterile needles into trigger points—tight bands of muscle that cause pain or limit movement. Unlike acupuncture, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine, dry needling is rooted in western neuroanatomy and is focused on treating musculoskeletal dysfunction.
✅ What Dry Needling Helps With:
Dry needling can be highly effective for treating:
Chronic muscle pain
Trigger point pain
Neck, shoulder, or lower back stiffness
Sports injuries
Sciatica
Tendinitis and overuse injuries
Tension headaches
Joint pain and tightness
By stimulating the muscle and improving blood flow, dry needling helps release knots, reduce inflammation, and restore normal muscle function.
🧍 What to Expect During a Dry Needling Session
At Stride Physical Therapy, your first session begins with a thorough evaluation to determine if dry needling is right for you. If so, we integrate it into your personalized treatment plan. The process is quick and most patients experience minimal discomfort—often described as a mild twitch or pressure sensation.
You may feel immediate relief after one session, although several treatments may be recommended depending on your condition.
