Western medical acupuncture (or dry needling) is a medical procedure conducted by practitioners after a diagnosis. Dry needling can lead to reduced muscle tightness and increased range of motion.

Dry needling may be the right choice when it comes to your sore muscles and tightness. However, in case you want to get rid of a mental or physical condition such as worry, sickness, or allergy, acupuncture may be your solution.

Many doctors who specialise in pain are now combining both methods into custom plans. These plans use dry needling to focus on specific painful spots and acupuncture to address full-body issues.

Licensed acupuncturists have spent many years in school practising dry needling. The treatment is not that painful, but you may feel a quick sting or muscle twitch.
