In favor of Dry Needling
 

The practice where I receive dry needling, Orthopedic Phycial Therapy, in Richmond, VA has excellent therapists that are highly trained in the procedure and I have benefitted highly from.  My daughter was also treated at this practice and she received benefits as well.   

I have received bpth accupuncture and dry needling and while they have been for different ailments, the process, feeling and outcome have been very different.  

I support and encourage more therapists to become certified and treat their clients with Dry Needling.  I have found it so helpful and provides immideate relief.

 

Thank you for your time.
