Release Trigger Points That Limit Your Movement

Muscle pain and tightness can develop from injury, repetitive motion, poor posture, or overuse, creating trigger points that restrict movement and interfere with everyday activities. Left untreated, these dysfunctional muscles can contribute to chronic pain, decreased flexibility, and reduced performance.

At Hill Pro-Motion Physical Therapy, dry needling is used to target these trigger points and restore normal muscle function. By reducing muscle tension and improving circulation, this evidence-based technique helps relieve pain, improve mobility, and support your body’s natural healing process. Whether you’re recovering from an injury or dealing with persistent muscle pain, treatment is customized to your individual needs.

The Recovery Journey

A plan you can see. Progress you can feel.

You’ll never wonder if it’s working. Four phases, each with a job, a timeline, and a way to know you’ve earned the next one.

Phase 1 of 4

Weeks 1–2

Pain

Calm the pain down.

  • Hands-on treatment starting your very first visit
  • Pain education so you understand what’s really going on
  • Quick wins early so you trust the plan

Weeks 2–6

Prime

Get your motion back.

  • Targeted mobility work for the joints and tissue holding you back
  • Exercise dosed to your body, not a generic sheet
  • Movement retraining so old habits stop reloading the problem

Weeks 6–10

Perform

Make it strong enough to trust.

  • Progressive loading that builds real capacity, not just tolerance
  • Strength standards you have to hit before moving on
  • Confidence under load, so you stop bracing for pain

Weeks 10+

Prevent

Make sure it never comes back.

  • Sport- and life-specific testing before you’re cleared
  • A simple keep-it-gone program built for your real schedule
  • Clear graduation criteria: you’ll know exactly when you’re done

Get My Plan

A Personalized Plan for Long-Term Recovery

Every patient begins with a comprehensive evaluation to identify the underlying causes of pain and movement dysfunction. From there, we develop a customized treatment plan based on your goals, activity level, and specific condition.

Dry needling is often combined with manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, mobility training, and movement education to maximize your recovery. Our goal is to help you move more efficiently, recover faster, and return to work, sports, and the activities you enjoy with greater confidence and less pain.

Questions, Answered

Frequently Asked Questions

Physical therapy sessions typically involve an assessment of your condition, manual techniques to improve mobility and flexibility, individualized exercises and activities to help you reach your goals, education on how to prevent further injury or pain, and instruction on proper posture, body mechanics and other lifestyle changes.

It depends on what health insurance plan you have and the state in which you live! In some states, direct access laws allow patients to be seen without a physician referral. Check with your health insurance company and local physical therapy clinics before scheduling an appointment.

You should dress in comfortable, loose clothing that allows you to move easily and doesn’t restrict circulation. Depending on your condition, your physical therapist may also recommend special shoes or a brace. You should also bring any paperwork related to your medical history, including x-rays, ultrasounds, and doctor’s notes.
