Dry Needling In Frisco
Dry Needling in Frisco & Dallas, TX: Targeted Pain Relief
At Ace Physical Therapy and Wellness, we offer advanced Dry Needling services for patients throughout Frisco. This highly effective, research-supported technique is performed by our specially trained physical therapists to reduce pain, release muscle tension, and restore natural movement patterns.
What Is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a skilled, evidence-based intervention in which thin, sterile needles are inserted into trigger points or tight, irritated muscle bands. Unlike acupuncture, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine, dry needling is grounded in modern anatomy, neuromuscular science, and clinical research.
Dry needling may help with:
-
Chronic muscle tightness
-
Sports injuries and recovery
-
Neck and back pain
-
Headaches and migraines
-
Tendinopathies such as tennis elbow and Achilles pain
-
Myofascial trigger points and referred pain

Why Choose Ace Physical Therapy and Wellness?
At Ace Physical Therapy and Wellness, dry needling is not used as a stand-alone treatment. Our clinicians integrate it into comprehensive, individualized treatment plans that also include manual therapy, targeted exercise, and patient education.

I got to say, I have been to other physical therapists and this is the BEST place for therapy I have ever been too!!! All of the therapists are great. Arva and Stephen are awesome. Seriously, they really care and stay with you through all of your therapy ensuring you’re doing it correctly. And even better, I feel so much better and stronger. I highly recommend this place. ☺️

I had a great experience at ACE Physical Therapy with Arva and Karen as my physical therapists. I went there for bladder issues and was amazed at how much they could help. They are patient and understanding and really know how to make you feel better. I am following the program and have great results. I highly recommend ACE Physical Therapy to everyone.
