2. Dry Needling
Dry needling is similar to acupuncture in that it also involves inserting needles into specific points on the body. However, dry needling is a Western medicine approach that is used to treat muscle pain, whereas acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine approach used to treat a variety of conditions. Dry needling has been shown to be an effective treatment for joint pain caused by myofascial trigger points.
