DRY NEEDLING IN GREENVILLE, SC
RELIEVE PAIN. UNLOCK MOBILITY. ACCELERATE RECOVERY.
WHAT IS DRY NEEDLING?
Dry needling is a precise treatment that targets trigger points and tight muscle tissue to reduce pain, restore mobility, and improve muscle function. Using thin monofilament needles, we release tension in muscles, tendons, and fascia so you can move better, train harder, and recover faster.
At Peak 3 Sports Physical Therapy, dry needling isn't a standalone treatment—it's part of a complete plan that includes strength training, mobility work, and sport-specific programming to deliver results that actually last.

WHY DRY NEEDLING AT PEAK 3 IS DIFFERENT
Expert Application
Dr. Josh Yokel is certified in dry needling (Cert-DN). Every needle placement is precise, purposeful, and part of a bigger plan.
Not a Standalone Treatment
We don't just needle you and send you home. It's integrated with manual therapy and strength work to fix the root cause.
Athlete-Focused Approach
We understand the demands of your sport. Whether you're a runner, CrossFitter, or weightlifter, we know the positions you need to hit.
Results-Driven Care
We test, treat, and re-test every session. You'll know if it's working immediately.
WHAT TO EXPECT

BEFORE TREATMENT
We assess your movement, identify the muscles causing pain, and explain exactly what we're targeting and why.

DURING TREATMENT
Thin needles are inserted into tight tissue. You may feel a brief twitch or deep ache—this is normal and means the muscle is releasing.

AFTER TREATMENT
You might feel immediate relief or 24-48 hours of soreness (like a hard workout). We'll give you clear instructions on what to do next.
