Dry Needling in Sports & Sport Recovery What the Research Shows

This systematic review with an evidence gap map examined the effects of dry needling in athletic and sport recovery populations. The findings support dry needling as a beneficial intervention when used appropriately in sports medicine and performance rehab.

Key findings from the review include:
• Improvements in pain and muscle sensitivity
• Positive changes in range of motion and muscle stiffness
• Potential benefits for sport recovery and return-to-sport timelines
• Stronger outcomes when dry needling is combined with active rehabilitation and exercise

The authors highlight that dry needling is most effective when it is not used in isolation, but instead integrated into a comprehensive, movement-based rehabilitation and performance program.

This review helps clarify where dry needling fits in modern sports rehab:
as a tool to optimize tissue function, improve movement quality, and support athletic recovery not a standalone fix.

This is NOT acupuncture.

This is Athletic Dry Needling®.

A performance-driven technique used to
✔ reduce pain
✔ restore movement
✔ improve durability
✔ support high-level sport & rehab

We don’t teach dry needling like a checklist.
We teach why, when, and how to use it with real athletes, real injuries, and real performance demands.

Trusted by pro & elite athletes.
Taught by clinicians who actually do the work.

This is the standard.
This is the difference.

Why dry needling works

Dry needling isn’t about “releasing knots” or chasing twitches.
It’s a targeted input to the nervous system that can:

• Reduce protective tone
• Modulate sensitivity
• Improve motor control
• Restore movement options

That window matters because it allows you to load, train, and integrate what pain or guarding was blocking.

The needle isn’t the treatment.
What you do next is.

ATs. PTs. Chiros.
If you’re using dry needling, this is how it should be applied.
