Why Use Dry Needling?

DRY NEEDLING IS AN EFFECTIVE METHOD FOR ADDRESSING TRIGGER POINT AND MYOFASCIAL PAIN, ENHANCING RANGE OF MOTION, AND PROMOTING FASTER RECOVERY FROM INJURIES.

This technique often leads to significant symptom relief, even for those with severe or chronic pain conditions. In White Plains, we offer comprehensive expertise in both dry needling and orthopedic acupuncture. Acupuncturist Taisha Gonzalez, L.Ac. has extensive experience in bodywork, setting her apart from other local practitioners. An initial consultation is required to determine if you are a candidate for dry needling. If you are determined to be a candidate, we can perform your first procedure on the same day.
