Functional Dry Needling (IMS)

Too often people are in the habit of seeking treatment with the sole goal of decreasing pain. Pain is important insofar as it affects function: our ability to perform movements and activities. Functional Dry Needling (often referred to as IMS/Intramuscular Stimulation) aims to not only reduce pain, but to assist in improving function and movement. Fine filiform needles are inserted deep within muscle tissue to target injured, tight or distressed muscles.
