YES to dry needling. Dry Needling is NOT acupuncture.
 

I had dry needling for my knee and my hip.  It was like a miracle for the relief of pain that it gave me.  I had so called "dry needling" by a chiropractor but it was actually acupuncture and IT DID NOTHING!  Dry needling is an effective tool and the staff at Solutions Physical Therapy are well qualified to administer it.
