Dry Needling Therapy
Are you struggling with persistent muscle pain or tightness that’s affecting your daily life? At StepUp Physical Therapy, we offer Dry Needling therapy as an effective solution to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance your overall function. Our experienced team in Murray, Utah, is dedicated to helping you achieve a pain-free lifestyle through personalized Dry Needling treatments.
What is Dry Needling?
Dry Needling is a specialized technique performed by our licensed physical therapists to target myofascial trigger points—commonly known as muscle knots—that cause pain and restrict movement. Using thin, sterile needles, we penetrate the skin to stimulate these trigger points, promoting muscle relaxation and pain relief. Unlike acupuncture, Dry Needling is rooted in Western medicine principles and focuses on treating musculoskeletal issues.
Benefits of Dry Needling
Incorporating Dry Needling therapy into your treatment plan can offer numerous benefits, including:
- Pain Relief: Effectively reduces both acute and chronic musculoskeletal pain.
- Improved Mobility: Enhances range of motion by releasing tight muscles.
- Accelerated Recovery: Speeds up the healing process by increasing blood flow to affected areas.
- Reduced Muscle Tension: Alleviates muscle spasms and stiffness.
- Enhanced Functionality: Helps restore normal muscle function, allowing you to return to daily activities with ease.
Conditions Treated with Dry Needling
Our Dry Needling treatments are effective for a variety of conditions, such as:
- Back and neck pain
- Shoulder impingement
- Tennis and golfer’s elbow

What to Expect During Treatment
During your Dry Needling therapy session at our Murray clinic, our skilled physical therapists will conduct a thorough assessment to identify the trigger points contributing to your pain. The treatment involves inserting fine needles into these specific areas to elicit a twitch response, which helps release muscle tension and alleviate pain. Most patients experience minimal discomfort and often notice immediate improvements in mobility and pain levels
