  • Acupuncture and dry needling use the same tools, but the techniques are different.  Dry needling often focuses only on muscle releases and/or trigger points, whereas acupuncture often does this and more. Acupuncture is a comprehensive medical system with thousands of years of history and use, and acupuncturists undergo rigorous training and are highly skilled. Acupuncture can not only treat pain but also treat the whole person: mind, body, and spirit.
