Dry Needling in Albuquerque
Discover the Benefits of Dry Needling in Albuquerque
Are you tired of living with persistent pain or limited mobility? At Active Solutions Therapy, we offer dry needling in Albuquerque, a highly effective treatment to relieve muscle pain, reduce tension, and improve movement. This specialized therapy can target deep-seated pain and restore your quality of life.
Dry needling is a technique performed by licensed professionals that involves the insertion of thin needles into specific trigger points in the muscles. Unlike acupuncture, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine, dry needling is rooted in Western medical principles and focuses on muscular and myofascial pain. Let us help you take the next step toward recovery.

Each session lasts about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your individual needs. Some patients feel immediate benefits, while others notice improvements after a few sessions. Your therapist will work with you to develop a schedule that ensures lasting results.
