Integrative Dry Needling (IDN) is a technique that targets both the root cause of pain, often stemming from neurogenic inflammation (irritation of the nerve), as well as the specific sites of discomfort at muscular trigger points. This dual approach has both local and systemic effects. Locally, IDN helps reduce tension and inflammation and promotes remodeling of injured tissue.
While systemically it lowers overall muscular tension, which can affect joint and posture balance. By addressing both the nervous system and the muscles, integrative dry needling combined with manual therapy can more comprehensively address both acute and chronic pain and promote a return to normal function.
