Question 6

What is the difference between dry needling and acupuncture?

Accepted Answer

Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese medicine which has been around for centuries, unlike dry needling which has only been available in recent years. Both acupuncture and dry needling see thin needles inserted into the skin or muscle to treat pain. However, dry needling is only used to treat muscular pain, whereas acupuncture treats a range of physical and psychological conditions, and clears blockages in the body’s energy flow (qi) to improve overall health.
