Pro needling
 

I have been a patient of physical therapy for many years for pain and many surgeries.  The needling procedure has helped me immensely, much faster than massage or regular therapy.   Please allow it to be used by physical therapists as I am very Pro needling.   I was introduced to the concept from a friend in Charlotte who was also helped by needling.   If I had not found a PT trained in this procedure, I would have suffered more and longer.
