What is a Trigger Point?

• A trigger point is a taut band of skeletal
  muscle located within a larger muscle group.
  Trigger points can be tender to the touch, and
  touching a trigger point may cause pain to other
  parts of the body.
• What Kind of Needles Are Used?
• Dry needling involves a thin filiform needle
  that penetrates the skin and stimulates
  underlying myofascial trigger points and muscular
  and connective tissues. The needle allows a
  physical therapist to target tissues that are not
  manually palpable.

5
Why Dry Needling?

• Physical therapists use dry needling with the
  goal of releasing or inactivating trigger points
  to relieve pain or improve range of motion.
  Preliminary research 2 supports that dry needling
  improves pain control, reduces muscle tension,
  and normalizes dysfunctions of the motor end
  plates, the sites at which nerve impulses are
  transmitted to muscles. This can help speed up
  the patients return to active rehabilitation.
