Dry Needling
Dry Needling is a specialized technique that uses thin needles to target and release trigger points within muscles, reducing pain and tension. By focusing on deep muscular knots and tightness, dry needling enhances circulation and promotes healing in the affected areas. This method is especially effective for treating chronic pain, sports injuries, and muscle dysfunction, offering relief and increased flexibility for patients dealing with persistent discomfort.
Common Treatments
Knee Osteoarthritis: Eases stiffness and improves joint mobility by reducing muscle tightness around the knee.
Low Back Pain: Targets muscle tension and trigger points to reduce back pain and improve movement.
Back of Shoulder: Targets trigger points to alleviate shoulder pain and improve function.
Hip & Glutes: Addresses tension and pain in the hip and gluteal muscles to enhance range of motion.
Plantar Fasciitis: Relieves foot and heel pain by releasing tension in the plantar fascia.
Lateral Hip and Iliotibial Band (IT Band) Syndrome: Helps alleviate tightness and pain along the outside of the thigh.
Duration & Purpose:
Likely 4-6 sessions, but will vary upon severity and response to treatment.
Increases blood flow
Decreases pain and inflammation
May help with local pain or referred pain

Meet Your Physical Therapist
Braydon Lavery
PT, DPT, CPT, CES
I grew up snowboarding, hiking and camping in Utah's spectacular wilderness areas and throughout high school and college, competed in numerous sports. Ranking as a top 10 runner in the state earned me a scholarship to Utah Valley University.
Unfortunately, injuries in my third year of college left me frustrated and unable to compete. But, it put me on the path to earning my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from South College in 2022. Today, my mission is to help people of all ages overcome physical challenges and lead active lives.
Since receiving my PT license I have become a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT), Corrective Exercise Specialist (CES), and certified in Dry Needling (DN).

What should I wear to my appointment?
If possible, please wear something that you can exercise or move comfortably in as we will perform various exercises and need access to the areas of the body being treated. If you plan on coming from work or some other activity you may consider bringing a change of clothes with you to change in to before and after the appointment. We also have extra shorts and t-shirts that you may use if needed.

5-Session Package (10% off per session)

Do you accept (Health Savings Account) HSA cards?
YES! A Health Savings Account (HSA) is a type of personal savings account you can set up to pay certain health care costs. An HSA allows you to put money away and withdraw it tax free, as long as you use it for qualified medical expenses, like deductibles, copayments, coinsurance, and more. I accept HSA cards as a method of payment, however, you should verify with your institution prior to your scheduled appointment.
What types of injuries or conditions do you treat?
I treat a variety of injuries and conditions, such as muscular and joint pain , sports injuries, pre/post-surgical rehabilitation, and balance and mobility issues.See the Dry Needling section to see common areas treated such as knee osteoarthritis!
Do you perform dry-needling?
YES! When dry needling is applied to an affected muscle or trigger point, it can decrease muscle tightness, increase blood flow and reduce pain. Patients often report immediate relief after treatment. The needles remain in your muscle for a short period of time — between 10 seconds and 20 minutes — during treatment (Mayo Clinic, 2023).
Dry needling is similar to acupuncture but the approach or reasoning behind it is different. Dry needling utilizes a "Western medicine" approach targeting trigger points within muscles rather than the "Eastern medicine" approach that emphasizes moving Chi and energy to heal the body.
