Dry Needling

"Dry needling is the use of either solid filiform needles or hollow-core hypodermic needles for therapy of muscle pain, sometimes also known as intramuscular stimulation (IMS). Although dry needling originally utilized only hypodermic needles due to the concern that solid filiform needles had neither the strength or tactile feedback that hypodermic needles provided and that the solid filiform needle could be deflected by dense contraction knots."

OTHER

Cross Tape Therapy

The tape consists of cross bands or strips mesh cross, nonelastic and without any medication, forming a grid-shaped patch. The cross tape will be applied on trigger points.
