Integrative Dry Needling ™ System significantly improves efficacy of manual therapy
Both external injuries and internal diseases affect the physiology and mechanical balance of the neuromusculoskeletal system. Neuromusculoskeletal system imbalance causes or is caused by dysfunction of soft tissues. Research by Johns Hopkins University shows that manual therapy could be significantly more effective if soft tissue dysfunction is treated first. All malfunction of the musculoskeletal system in fact is related or directly caused by dysfunction of the soft tissue such as nerves, muscles, fascia, tendons and ligaments.
