Performed by a certified Physical Therapist as part of a comprehensive approach to manage trigger points and myo-fascial pain syndromes.
Marathon is a leading provider and advocate of Trigger Point Dry Needling (TPDN). TPDN, when utilized as part of a comprehensive approach to patient care, can provide tremendous results.
A Marathon Physical Therapist will incorporate TPDN when the clinical reasoning and patient are appropriate. Using a solid monofilament needle, PTs effectively interrupt adhesions that negatively affect tissue and movement health.
A trigger point is: A taut band in a muscle.
A trigger point can cause: Pain, decrease flexibility, decrease strength, and alter movement patterns.
TPDN can also be purchased as an individual session or package for use outside of a physical therapy plan of care. These options are beneficial for people who have had TPDN as part of a physical therapy plan of care, and want to continue with the service as a preventive and lifestyle health strategy.
