Hello @birdman518. I think western medicine is often not well understood in our country but many hospitals have endorsed more and more of the practices as alternative treatment options. Here is an article from the Mayo Clinic Health System that may help you feel more comfortable with the idea of the treatment: https://www.mayoclinichealthsystem.org/hometown-health/speaking-of-health/on-pins-and-needles-just-what-is-dry-needling

As well, I'd like to invite @jenniferhunter to come in and share what she may know with regard to another treatment that could be worth exploring, that is myofascial release therapy. Have you heard of it?
