Reset Your Muscles. Reclaim Your Movement.

Experience precise relief with Dry Needling & IMS at Chinook Physio in SW Calgary—where deep muscle tension meets hands-on expertise for lasting recovery.

What Is Dry Needling & IMS?

Dry needling, also known as Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS), uses fine, sterile needles inserted into tight muscles or trigger points. This technique helps release tension, reduce pain, and reset muscle function, especially in areas where movement feels stuck or painful.

Who Is This For?

  • People with chronic muscle tightness, tension, or referred pain

​

  • Commonly used for neck pain, low back pain, tension headaches, sciatica, or postural strain

​

  • Ideal for athletes, desk workers, and anyone managing overuse injuries

What to Expect

After assessing your movement and tension patterns, Jaedon will gently insert dry needles into targeted trigger points. The sensation may include a twitch response or deep ache, followed by a feeling of release.

​

  • Assessment: Identifying trigger points and restricted areas

​

  • Treatment: Strategic needle insertion into problem muscle tissue

​

  • Relief: Improved mobility, reduced tension, and faster recovery

Why It Works

This treatment targets muscle dysfunction at its source. By releasing trigger points and calming overactive nerves, dry needling helps restore muscle tone and reduce painful compensation patterns.

Jaedon's Approach

"Dry needling isn’t just about reducing pain. It’s about giving your muscles the reset they need to work better and move freer. We use needles when it best fits your recover."
