Some muscular tension does not respond to hands-on work alone. A trigger point is a tight band within the muscle that can stay contracted and refer pain to another area, which is why a shoulder problem can present as a headache, or a glute can send pain down the leg.
Dry needling is based on Western medicine principles and targets that muscular system directly, which makes it different from acupuncture. Single-use sterile needles are used, and it is often combined with adjustment or rehabilitation in the same appointment.
No. Both use fine needles, but dry needling is based on Western medicine principles and targets muscular trigger points. Acupuncture follows traditional Chinese medicine and works with energy flow through meridians.

Suction applied to skin and underlying tissue to release muscular tension, support circulation and assist recovery, particularly for physically demanding work.
