Dry needling, also known as trigger point dry needling and intramuscular stimulation, is a technique used by various healthcare practitioners. It is used to treat dysfunction of skeletal muscle and connective tissue, minimize pain, and improve or regulate structural or functional damage.
The synthesis of results in a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis by Dr. Jan Dommerholt and his peers, published on PubMed by Oxford University Press on behalf of the American Physical Therapy Association, showed that dry needling could significantly improve headache frequency, health-related quality of life, trigger point tenderness, and cervical range of motion in TTH and CGH.
