Dry Needling vs Acupuncture: What's the Difference?
Both use fine needles, but the approach and purpose are very different. 👇
✨ Dry Needling:
A technique used by physios, myotherapists, and chiros to release tight muscles (trigger points). It targets specific spots to relieve tension, improve mobility, and ease pain.
✨ Acupuncture:
A holistic practice from Traditional Chinese Medicine. It regulates the nervous system, reduce inflammation, and support overall health — from digestion to stress to sleep.
🔎 In short:
• Dry needling = muscle-focused
• Acupuncture = systemic focus
At East Brunswick Acupuncture, I offer acupuncture and collaborate with myotherapists and phisiotherapists for the best care possible. 🙌
