Diagnosis: Text Neck 📱💥
That ache at the base of your neck and upper back?
Not your pillow — it’s your posture 👀

When you tilt your head down to look at your phone, your neck takes on up to 60 pounds of extra pressure.
No wonder it’s screaming. 😅

Physical therapy can help you:
✅ Release neck and shoulder tension
✅ Retrain postural muscles
✅ Keep you pain-free while you scroll, work, and live 🙌

Neck pain shouldn’t come with your data plan. 😉

Upper Trap Dry Needling ⚡️
That constant neck and shoulder tightness? Or those headaches that creep up the back of your head? 👀
Your upper traps might be the real culprit.

Dry needling helps release deep trigger points that:
💢 Cause neck stiffness & shoulder tension
🤕 Trigger tension headaches
💪 Limit lifting or overhead motion

By resetting the muscle with electrical stimulation, we help you move freer, lighter, and pain-free again.

🏋️‍♀️ Improve flexibility
🦵 Boost recovery after workouts or injuries
🔥 Reduce hamstring pain & stiffness

Perfect for athletes, runners, and anyone tired of feeling “tight” all the time!

Right Lat Dry Needling 💪✨
That tightness under your shoulder blade or side when you reach overhead or twist? 👀
Your latissimus dorsi (aka lat) might be the culprit.

Dry needling the right lat targets those deep muscle knots that can:

😣 Cause mid-back or arm pain
🏋️‍♀️ Affect lifting, reaching, or even your posture

By releasing those trigger points, dry needling helps:
✅ Improve shoulder range of motion
✅ Decrease tension and pain
✅ Enhance performance and recovery

It’s one of the most effective ways to restore movement and comfort — especially for athletes, lifters, and anyone dealing with stubborn back or shoulder tightness.
