Targeted treatments to help you move and feel better
Relief for Muscle Pain and Tension
Muscle pain, stiffness, and knots can make even simple, everyday tasks feel exhausting. At Align Medical Center, we understand how disruptive this can be—and we offer multiple ways to help you feel and move better. Two of the most common treatments we provide for muscle-related discomfort are dry needling and trigger point injections.
A scientifically-based approach to muscle recovery
What Is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a treatment technique that uses thin, solid filament needles to deactivate and desensitize myofascial trigger points—the knots in muscles and tissue that cause pain, decreased flexibility, and reduced function. By targeting these dysfunctional points, dry needling addresses the root cause of muscle pain rather than just masking symptoms.
Relief for a wide range of muscle-related issues
What Conditions Can Dry Needling Treat?
Dry needling can benefit anyone experiencing muscle dysfunction, which is often a contributing factor in many musculoskeletal conditions. It is effective for:
- Headaches and neck pain
- Repetitive stress injuries
- Muscle tendonitis and rotator cuff impingement
- Frozen shoulder and carpal tunnel syndrome
- Sacroiliac joint dysfunction and sciatica
- Muscle strains, iliotibial band syndrome, patellofemoral dysfunction, and plantar fasciitis
This treatment helps resolve chronic or persistent pain, restore function, and support a faster return to daily activities and recreational pursuits.
