What is Trigger Point Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a specialized technique used to treat painful areas in tissues that may be too deep to reach with a hands-on approach. The thin needle is inserted into the affected tissue by the therapist. Once the trigger point is reached with the needle, both a physical and chemical response occurs as proven in research. Research has shown that prior to the needle being inserted into the tissue, the affected area is acidic with a low pH and poor oxygen levels compared to tissue regions without pain. Once the painful area is needled, chemicals are released and the affected region returns to a normal healthy environment.
Meet Amanda
Amanda grew up in the small Virginia town of Clarksville which prides itself on hospitality and community. Although she’s lived in various cities across the United States, she still considers herself a small town girl and likes to have a personable relationship with her patients.
“I have worked with many physical therapists over the past few years and Amanda is truly the best. She is extremely knowledgeable and really takes the time to understand my goals and answer my questions. She has helped me return to being active and pain free when I thought it wasn’t possible. I would recommend Amanda to anyone in need of physical therapy!”
