TRIGGER POINT DRY NEEDLING

​

Relieve Pain and Restore Movement with Trigger Point Dry Needling

 

At Holm Physical Therapy, we know that chronic pain, muscle tightness, and restricted mobility can be life-limiting. That’s why we offer Trigger Point Dry Needling (TDN) – a powerful, minimally invasive treatment designed to target and relieve muscular pain at its source. Led by experienced physical therapists, our dry needling services are grounded in evidence-based practices to help you achieve lasting relief.

​

What is Trigger Point Dry Needling?

 

Trigger Point Dry Needling is a specialized therapy that uses thin, sterile needles to penetrate the skin and stimulate underlying myofascial trigger points. Unlike acupuncture, which is rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, dry needling focuses on treating specific muscle groups affected by trigger points, or "knots." By releasing these painful areas, TDN helps improve blood flow, reduce muscle tightness, and restore natural function.

 

Benefits of Trigger Point Dry Needling at Holm Physical Therapy

• Pain Reduction: Release muscle knots that cause chronic pain in the neck, back, shoulders, hips, and more.

• Improved Mobility: Regain full range of motion in your muscles and joints.

• Faster Recovery: Reduce recovery time from sports injuries, strains, and other musculoskeletal issues.

• Non-Medicated Pain Management: A natural alternative for those seeking relief without medication.

 

Is Trigger Point Dry Needling Right for You?

 

Dry needling may be beneficial if you experience:

• Chronic muscle pain or tension

• Limited joint mobility or flexibility

• Pain that hasn't responded to other treatments

• Repetitive stress injuries or sports injuries

 

Our licensed therapists at Holm Physical Therapy will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and goals.

TMJ DISORDER

​

TMJ stands for the temporomandibular joint which is located on each side of your jaw.  TMJ disorder affects over 35 million people in the United States and it can be a huge source of frustration for people who live with it. Signs of TMJ disorder include pain around the jaw, face or head area,  popping or locking in the jaw, difficulty opening or closing your jaw, and problems with eating or yawning.  Recent studies have demonstrated the importance of looking for conservative treatment methods and physical therapy from a TMJ specialist has become  the go-to option.

​

 

REDCORD SUSPENSION THERAPY

​

Redcord is a revolutionary system of slings and suspension that aims to restore pain free movement and function.  It allows us to offload the effects of gravity and body weight with exercises that stimulate the neuromuscular system.  Redcord targets our weak links and movement imbalances while minimizing the compensation patterns that lead to pain and dysfunction.  It is an essential tool for developing a healthy foundation of movement to reduce pain and injury risk with other activities. 

​

 

MANUAL THERAPY

​

Manual Therapy involves hands-on treatment techniques targeting muscles, fascia, joints, tendons, and ligaments. The goal is typically to reduce pain/inflammation, improve tissue extensibility, and restore normal range of motion.   Examples of manual therapy include soft tissue  massage, joint mobilizations, myofascial release, and stretching.

​

 

SPORTS PERFORMANCE AND INJURY PREVENTION

​

Even when we think that we are strong, there are often asymmetries or movement compensations that can impact our performance or predispose us to injury during sporting activities. Your therapist can conduct a comprehensive movement evaluation to determine any imbalances, movement restrictions, or weaknesses that are limiting your performance and putting you at increased risk of injury.  Together you can work to improve your performance in the clinic and also with a customized home or gym exercise program.

​

​

GOLF SPECIFIC PHYSICAL THERAPY

​

Nick Holm has received the highest level of medical certification through the Titleist Performance Institute to provide golf specific physical therapy service.  With TPI movement screening and corrective exercises you can improve your flexibility, increase your power, and reduce the risk of injury/pain while on the course.  There are often physical limitations that lead to faulty swing patterns and your therapist can assess and treat these limitations to get you moving, swinging, and feeling better.

 

 

BLOOD FLOW RESTRICTION TRAINING

​

Revolutionize Your Rehabilitation with Blood Flow Restriction Training!

​

Restore Strength. Enhance Recovery. Optimize Performance.

 

At Holm Physical Therapy, we’re committed to offering cutting-edge treatments that speed up recovery and maximize results. One of our key therapies is Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training – a safe, scientifically proven method that helps patients regain strength, improve endurance, and accelerate healing, all with low-intensity exercises that are easier on the joints.

 

What is Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Therapy?

 

BFR therapy uses specialized cuffs that partially restrict blood flow to the muscles, allowing for significant muscle activation with much lower weight and resistance. This innovative approach promotes muscle growth and recovery by stimulating the body’s natural healing mechanisms, making it ideal for patients recovering from surgery, injury, or chronic conditions.

 

Benefits of Blood Flow Restriction Therapy at Our Clinic

 

Faster Recovery – Boosts muscle strength and function in a fraction of the time compared to traditional methods.

Joint-Friendly – Achieve the benefits of high-intensity training with minimal strain on your joints.

Pain-Free Strengthening – Engage in effective rehabilitation with minimal discomfort and reduced risk of re-injury.

Personalized Care – Our trained therapists develop tailored BFR protocols to meet your specific needs and goals.

 

Who Can Benefit from BFR Therapy?

• Post-Surgical Recovery – Speed up muscle strength and endurance after ACL, rotator cuff, and other surgeries.

• Sports Injuries – Get back to your sport faster with safe, effective muscle rehabilitation.

• Chronic Conditions – Improve functional strength in cases of arthritis, tendinitis, and other joint-related conditions.

• General Fitness – Enhance muscle mass and performance without overloading your body.

 

Why Choose Optimal Recovery Physical Therapy?

 

Our licensed physical therapists are trained in the latest BFR techniques to ensure safe, effective, and results-driven therapy. We use high-quality equipment and customize each session to your unique needs, helping you reach your goals faster and return to the activities you love.
