Intramuscular Stimulation

Intramuscular Stimulation is a skilled intervention by inserting fine filiform needles into the body to stimulate a healing response in the presence of movement dysfunction and/or neuromusculoskeletal issues. This technique is performed by a certified and trained healthcare professional. Intramuscular Stimulation is not considered acupuncture, which is rooted in Eastern philosophy. On the contrary, it is a technique rooted in Western medicine and evidence-based clinical research. It is commonly used for trigger point therapy, simple muscle tightness, sprains, strains of soft tissues, and recovery of overused soft tissues. It has also shown great promise in decreasing tissue inflammation and pain.

**Like most medical interventions, there are risks and rewards involved in Intramuscular Stimulation. Please consult with the professionals at Phase 5 to see if Intramuscular Stimulation is suitable for you.**
