Acupuncture and dry needling are therapeutic techniques
Both acupuncture and dry needling involve inserting needles into the body, they have different origins, philosophies, and purposes.
Acupuncture is deeply rooted in traditional Chinese medicine and focuses on balancing the body’s energy flow, while dry needling is a Western medical technique that targets muscle pain and trigger points.
The choice between the two depends on the individual’s specific health condition and the approach preferred by the practitioner. It’s important to consult with a qualified healthcare provider to determine which technique is most suitable for your needs.
