At Galaxy Brain and Therapy Center, dry needling is a specialized service offered to relieve muscular pain and tension.

Dry needling is a technique that involves inserting a small needle into symptomatic tissue to help reduce pain, improve circulation, and enhance the function of the neuromusculoskeletal system. Unlike traditional Chinese acupuncture, which is rooted in the concept of Chi, dry needling is based on neurology, physiology, and Western medical principles.

While dry needling is most effective as part of a comprehensive physical therapy program, it can also be provided as a standalone treatment. However, it’s important to note that most insurance companies do not cover dry needling, so it is typically an out-of-pocket expense.
