Physical Therapy
Dry Needling
Similar to traditional Chinese acupuncture, though based on a different philosophy, the “dry” in dry needling refers to the fact that there is no medication or injection attached to the needle. Small acupuncture-like needles are placed into muscles at various locations throughout all parts of the body including trigger points, homeostatic points, and along nerve roots and pathways. Dry needling can be combined with electrical stimulation to create a more powerful effect that is useful not only for pain-relief, but also for increased recovery and even performance enhancement.
Cupping
Different than most forms of hands-on therapy, cupping, or myofascial decompression, is a complementary therapy that uses small silicone or plastic cups to create a suction effect over the skin and muscle. As most forms of massage and soft-tissue work involve applying pressure and pressing into muscles, cupping is a novel stimulus that separates tissue and is often tolerated better by people who do not respond well to massage-like treatments. Cups can be placed and left on (static cupping), can be dragged and moved over muscles, or can be placed and combined with movement (dynamic cupping).
IASTM
Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization, or scraping, is an alternative form of hands-on therapy that utilizes smooth, stainless steel instruments to decrease muscle tone and tension. Gentle pressure is applied to a painful or tight area, and the tools are swept over muscle groups in a flowing pattern. It can often be more comfortable than deep tissue work, as aggressive, sharp pressure is not needed to be effective.
