What is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a precise, targeted technique that uses thin needles to release muscle tension, reduce pain, and restore movement. Distinct from acupuncture, it's rooted in modern musculoskeletal science — targeting trigger points and dysfunctional tissue to address the root cause of your symptoms. Dr. Steven incorporates dry needling as part of a broader, personalized treatment plan, using it where it's most likely to make a real difference for your body.
How it Works?
filter_1
Find the Source
Dr. Steven identifies the trigger points and restricted tissue contributing to your pain or movement limitations — not just where it hurts, but why.

Target and Release
A thin needle is inserted directly into the affected area, creating a local response in the tissue. This interrupts the pain cycle, encourages blood flow, and signals the muscle to release.

Restore and Recover
Dr. Steven will often follow up with hands-on techniques — like Active Release Technique — to build on that release and help your body move the way it should.
Who Does Dry Needling Benefit?
- Athletes dealing with deep muscle tension that won't respond to traditional treatment
- Anyone experiencing recurring trigger points or stubborn knots
- People recovering from injury who need targeted tissue reset alongside their rehab
- Golfers and tennis players with sport-specific overuse patterns
- Those who are curious but hesitant — dry needling is often more comfortable than expected
