DRY NEEDLING
Experience the Difference with Haynes Physical Therapy Dry Needling
If you're searching for effective, evidence-based treatment for muscle pain, chronic tension, sports injuries, or movement limitations, dry needling can help you get back to living without pain.
At Haynes Physical Therapy, we use advanced dry needling techniques as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation approach designed to reduce pain, restore mobility, and improve overall function. Unlike providers who simply treat symptoms, our team identifies the root cause of your discomfort and develops a personalized treatment plan to help you achieve lasting results.
Whether you're dealing with neck pain, back pain, headaches, shoulder injuries, sciatica, or sports-related conditions, Haynes Physical Therapy may be the solution you've been looking for.
What Is Dry Needling?
Dry Needling is a specialized treatment performed by licensed physical therapists using thin, sterile needles to target trigger points, muscle knots, and areas of tissue dysfunction.
When muscles become tight, overworked, or injured, they can develop trigger points that cause pain, stiffness, weakness, and reduced movement. Dry needling helps release these trigger points and promotes the body's natural healing process.
Patients choose Haynes Physical Therapy Dry Needling because it can:
- Reduce muscle tension
- Improve flexibility and range of motion
- Decrease pain
- Improve circulation
- Support faster recovery
- Enhance athletic performance
Dry needling is frequently combined with therapeutic exercise, manual therapy, and movement retraining to maximize long-term results.
Conditions Treated with Dry Needling
Our dry needling program is commonly used to treat:
Neck Pain
Muscle tightness and trigger points in the neck and upper shoulders can contribute to pain, headaches, and limited mobility. Dry Needling helps reduce tension and restore normal movement.
Back Pain
Whether you experience chronic low back pain or acute muscle strain, dry needling can help decrease muscle guarding and improve function.
Shoulder Pain
Patients with rotator cuff injuries, shoulder impingement, and muscular dysfunction often experience significant improvements with dry needling treatment.

Trigger points in the lower back, glutes, and hip muscles can contribute to sciatic symptoms. Dry needling may help reduce irritation and improve movement.
