Targeted Relief Where You Need It Most
Some aches don't budge with stretching or “just resting.” Dry needling goes straight to the source — targeting irritated muscles and stubborn knots with precision. At Frenchtown Chiropractic in St. Charles, MO, Dr. Kevin uses dry needling to help you move better, feel stronger, and get back to performing at your best.
What is Dry Needling?
What is Dry Needling?
Dry needling uses fine, sterile, single-use needles to release muscle trigger points and irritated soft tissue. As a Certified Dry Needling Practitioner (CDNP), Dr. Kevin applies this technique safely and effectively to relieve muscular pain and tension.
How Does Treatment Work?
How Does Treatment Work?
During a session, you might feel a quick prick as the needle enters the skin and a brief twitch or mild ache as the muscle responds. These sensations are normal — and usually a sign that the muscle is finally letting go. The needles are left in place for a short period and then removed. Dr. Kevin chooses needle placement, duration, and treatment frequency based on your individual needs and how your body responds to care.
What Are the Benefits of Dry Needling?
Dry needling can make a big difference in how you feel. It may help:
- Reduce muscular pain and tightness
- Improve joint mobility and movement patterns
- Increase blood flow and promote healing
- Decrease nerve irritation and quiet overactive trigger points
Whether you’re managing a nagging injury or trying to stay ahead of flare-ups, dry needling may be exactly what you need!
