Dry Needling

2018-09-14 12:26:32
I have neck and shoulder pain (right shoulder). Im taking dry needling therapy for it. Therapist told me to take 10 session/daily basis. Its very painful. I somewhere read it should be 1 session/week for 3 to 4 weeks. So my question is can i go for it daily? My arm is still sore because of yesterday's therapy. Im scared about today's session. Can i go alternate day???
