Dry needling
 

Thank you for this opportunity to express my complete support of this physical therapy! The therapist has been at all times very professional. They began with a very comprehensive analysis of my condition and history of my pain levels and causes. All I can say is the dry needling was the only thing that worked. I was at a point where life was not at all enjoyable , I would have headaches that would last for three and four days and I was completely incapacitated! The therapist were constantly checking on my progress ; really I don't know what I would do without them .   Please , please allow their practice to continue ! The only other alternative would be to move where thier practice was allowed or massive doses  of opioids !  Thank you , in advance for finding this valuable service necessary for our community !  Sincerely Michael Hillier
