Dry Needling Applications & Protocols

Recent research as well as past research demonstrates the effectiveness of dry needling, making it one of the emerging popular therapies today. However, if the practitioner is not skilled and fully understanding of how the needle works and how to determine the appropriate needle locations, the service can cause pain and discomfort, or poor outcomes.
In this seminar, you will learn:
1. Safety concerns and proper needle use and disposal
2. When dry needling should and should not be used
3. How to perform dry needling & the proper needle locations
4. Much more!
