Chronic pain can be life-altering. According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about 20% of Americans-over 50 million people-experienced chronic pain in 2021. For many, traditional treatments fall short, but there are alternative options that can help.
Dry Needling and Much More
At Ferrell-Whited, dry needling is just one of the many advanced therapy techniques we offer to help patients manage chronic pain and accelerate recovery. Dry needling is particularly effective for treating myofascial and musculoskeletal pain, especially when combined with other hands-on physical therapy techniques. Our clinicians often integrate dry needling into a personalized treatment plan that may also include exercise, stretching, massage, and additional therapies available at Ferrell-Whited.
With multiple locations throughout Northeast Ohio, Ferrell-Whited provides dry needling alongside a broad range of innovative physical therapy treatments. Please note that not all services are available at every location.
How Dry Needling Works
Dry needling involves inserting thin, sterile needles into tight muscles or “trigger points”-knotted, sensitive areas that can cause pain and restrict movement. This technique increases blood flow, enhances flexibility, and can improve range of motion. Many patients experience immediate improvements in muscle mobility. Dry needling also promotes healing, speeds up recovery, and reduces pain, all with minimal side effects.
