As a practitioner and former patient I have seen and felt the positive effects of Trigger Point Dry Needling, TDN. With the anatomy and physiology knowledge that the field of Physical Therapy requires I feel most confident allowing PTs to complete this "invasive" procedure. I have personal experience from 3 different TDN practioners who I felt fully comfortable allowing to needle numerous ailments I have had in the past, key word past. Needling is a step in the right direction for physical therapists as our practice changes with the changing needs of our patients. TDN is a game changer for physical therapists and can help allow them continue to treat their patients completely.
