Dry needling is done by inserting very small needles into problem areas of your body. Your entire body is addressed at each appointment, based on the root cause of the dysfunction. It is different from acupuncture in that dry needling treats the problem tissue at its source, and acupuncture moves Chi. A Total Healing Solution compliments other treatments or therapies that you are receiving. More than just a trigger points are being addressed, muscles, tendons, nerves, any "pathological" tissue is treated. I have studied many forms of dry needling theories and use which ever one will get you optimal results.
A wide range of medical services are offered to treat your concerns and dysfunctions. Areas that are typically treated are: pain, TMJ, scars, neck pain and dysfunction, back pain and dysfunction, tinnitus, migraine, muscle spasms, trigger points, urinary incontinence, lipomas, pelvic pain , erectile dysfunction/ pain with sex, (Needles are inserted at remote areas), Vagas Nerve regulation (offering a break in the stress response cycle), tendon/ ligament dysfunction, muscle imbalances, joint replacement dysfunction, localized edema, chronic conditions, acute conditions, injuries, (dry needling promotes increased blood flow and dry needles are anti-inflammatory), improved healing after surgeries, plantar fasciitis, mastectomy scars , & concussion all with dry needles.
Other services that we offer include direct access physical therapy, which means that you do not need a prescription to receive our services. Auricular therapy which uses seeds or pellets on a small adhesive strip to certain parts of your ears to treat symptoms and conditions. This is offered without needles so that you can try our services even if you have a fear of needles or if you want a child to try our services. Reiki is offered during dry needling services or as a distance healing. Herbal consultations and herbal compounds are offered in conjunction with your physical therapy condition or any other condition that you are suffering from.
The services provided are designed to meet the unique health needs of each client, allowing the body to heal itself without the use of pharmaceuticals.
Insurance is not accepted; you can pay with a Health Savings Card or Flexible Savings Accounts. If you are coming with a prescription for dry needling a reimbursement is not covered in the state of PA. If supporting documentation is needed there is a cost for staff to write any extra letters, based on their time spent.
