We believe physical therapists certified in dry needling are uniquely qualified to treat pain caused by trigger points and inflammation within muscle. Because we deal with musculoskeletal injury and dysfunction daily, physical therapists have a specialized understanding of dry needling as one tool in a comprehensive treatment plan.
At Excel Physical Therapy, only physical therapists certified in dry needling treat patients with this technique. David Coletta, MPT, CPMT and Jason Lunden, DPT, SCS are certified in dry needling for Lumbopelvic & Lower Extremity Conditions and for Craniofacial, Cervicothoracic & Upper Extremity Conditions. Both advanced training and certification programs are from the Dry Needling Institute of American Academy of Manipulative Therapy.
