Discover the Benefits of Dry Needling and Acupuncture at Athletica Health + Wellness

At Athletica Health + Wellness, we’re dedicated to offering a range of therapies to support your health and well-being. We’re excited to share insights into two of our specialised treatments: dry needling and acupuncture.

Dry Needling vs. Acupuncture: What’s the Difference?

Dry Needling targets specific trigger points in muscles to relieve pain and improve function. This technique involves inserting thin needles directly into tight muscle knots to release tension, enhance blood flow, and alleviate discomfort. It’s particularly effective for addressing localized muscle pain and improving mobility.

Acupuncture, on the other hand, is a time-honored practice from traditional Chinese medicine. It involves placing needles into precise points along the body’s energy meridians to restore balance and promote overall wellness. Acupuncture aims to harmonize the body’s energy flow, which can help with a wide range of conditions, from stress relief and digestive issues to chronic pain and hormonal imbalances.

Health Benefits of Both Treatments:

- Dry Needling: Reduces muscle pain and stiffness, improves range of motion, and accelerates recovery from injuries.
- Acupuncture: Enhances overall well-being, supports natural healing, balances energy, and helps manage various physical and emotional conditions.

Both therapies offer unique benefits and can be tailored to meet your individual needs. Our experienced practitioners are here to help you choose the right approach for your health goals.
