Dry Needling Sessions At Balance Within Physical Therapy!
Are you struggling with a pulled muscle or nagging aches & pains in your back, legs, neck or shoulders that are stopping you from going out for a walk, enjoying the kids or causing the weekly shopping to really feel like a major chore?
It can be frustrating not being able to find a long-term solution to your aches and pains, however, dry needling therapy might be one of the missing pieces in your puzzle to get the relief you’ve been looking for!
Dry Needling is a specialized treatment used to treat pain and stiffness that targets the myofascial trigger points within the body. Dry Needling has become quite popular lately due to its quick results in releasing muscle spasms and tension. Other benefits include decreasing inflammation and increasing blood flow to the surrounding area aiding in recovery from injury or overuse.
Some benefits of dry needling include:
- Pain Relief
- Improved Range of Motion
- Faster Recovery
- Increased Blood Flow
- Reduced Need for Medications
- Enhanced Muscle Function
Curious what all the hype is about? During the month of July, we’re offering $100.00 off Dry Needling Sessions: 55 minute session (Limit one per person). This is a great way to try dry needling and to discover the healing benefits of this unique service so you can feel great for all your summer plans!
Click here or call/text our clinic line at 262.264.8701 to schedule your Dry Needling Session today.

Thanks for sharing! I have off this Friday and wanted to do something fun with my kids. I think we’ll check out the Food Trucks and then the drive-in concrete at night with my husband. I’ve seen a lot of friends going to drive-in concerts and I’ve wanted to go to one too, so this works out perfectly. Thanks again!
You’re welcome! We really enjoyed the Food Truck at the airport to watch the planes. Do plan extra time in case there is a line for food. Enjoy the concert as well!
I have heard about the Brookfields Farmers Market but never made it out. I think my kids would love it! I remember my first bartering lessons were at the swap meet!
Farmers markets are amazing for kids! It’s a great way to see and buy homemade, fresh local produce and products.
Thank you so much for the sledding hill guide and map! I’m afraid the kids have been getting incredibly restless lately now that the holidays are over and along with the pandemic. Could use some good sledding time to get it out of their system!
You are very welcome. We loved putting it together.
