Meet your flexor digitorum brevis — the small but powerful muscle on the bottom of your foot that helps stabilize every step.

When it tightens up from imbalance or overuse, it can feel like walking on a bruise. 😣

Dry needling + gentle electrical stimulation help release that deep tension and rebalance how you move.

Thinner needles, light current, and major relief. ⚡️👣

🌞 Stop chasing symptoms — let’s treat the cause. Book your session now.

"Balancing long runs and intense cross training/strength sessions with long hospital shifts as part of clinical rotations pushes my body to its limits," Pasadyn said. "I noticed dry needling and acupuncture with Morningside helped boost blood flow, ease tightness, and sped up my recovery so I could train hard daily and show up race-ready.”

💡Carpal Tunnel Syndrome symptoms can mimic other conditions like pronator teres syndrome or cervical radiculopathy. Traditional treatments often involve NSAIDs, wrist splints, physical therapy, or, in severe cases, surgery. However, an integrated approach using acupuncture and dry needling provides a noninvasive alternative, addressing nerve compression and muscle imbalances directly at their source.

Ever feel that quick little *twitch* during a dry needling session? That’s your muscle saying, “Thanks, I needed that!” 😌 ⁠
⁠
It’s like hitting reset on a stubborn knot. The needle dissolves built-up tension and triggers targeted inflammation—delivering blood flow and healing exactly where it’s needed. ⚡️ ⁠
⁠
💪 Dry needling doesn’t just loosen muscles—it helps them reset, recover, and function optimally. Ideal for runners, weekend warriors, or anyone tired of lingering tightness. ⁠

Your "hamstring strain" might not be a muscle issue—it may be tendon overload. Treating it like a strain with endless stretching won't repair it. Hamstring tendinopathy requires a different approach: first, calm the irritated tendon, then strategically restore its load tolerance.

This is how you get back to running pain-free and protect your performance.

Plantar fasciitis can cause debilitating heel pain, which is often misdiagnosed. Dry needling offers an effective and direct treatment option by inserting thin needles into specific trigger points in your foot and calf muscles that can mimic symptoms of an actual plantar fascia tear. Treatment can release muscle tension and reduce heel pain without the need for medication or more invasive intervention.
