Enhances Recovery
Introduction
Are you struggling with persistent muscle tension, joint pain, or reduced performance during workouts? Dry needling, a cutting-edge physical therapy technique, is gaining popularity among athletes and active adults as a game-changing solution. I'll uncover how dry needling works, its benefits, and why it’s becoming an essential tool for pain relief and optimal performance.
What is Dry Needling?
