Functional Dry Needling (FDN) is a powerful technique at Ascent Therapy to help you move better and feel stronger. Not to be confused with acupuncture, FDN targets specific trigger points in your muscles that cause pain and limit movement. Our skilled therapists insert thin, sterile needles into these points to release tension and restore proper muscle function.
But we don’t stop there! At Ascent Therapy, we often combine FDN with electrical stimulation. This gentle electrical current further enhances the effects of the needles, promoting faster healing and pain relief. The stimulation helps to:
- Increase blood flow to the area, bringing in essential nutrients for healing.
- Reduce pain signals traveling to the brain.
- Release endorphins, your body’s natural painkillers.
- Improve muscle activation and coordination.
If you’re dealing with muscle pain, stiffness, or limited movement, functional dry needling with electrical stimulation at Ascent Therapy could be the solution you’ve been looking for.
