Understanding the Difference
Because both treatments use thin needles, acupuncture and dry needling are often confused — but their approaches and philosophies are quite different.
While they may appear similar at first glance, each technique is based on a different system of care.
What Is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is commonly focused on targeting muscle tension and trigger points within specific muscles.
It is often used as a technique for addressing muscular tightness and discomfort.
