Dr. Segarra at Harrisburg Chiropractic and Wellness Center combines traditional acupuncture wisdom with modern dry needling techniques to provide welcome pain relief. His advanced training in both methods offers our patients multiple options for treating chronic pain, headaches, and muscle tension without medication. Certified in acupuncture since 1998, his experience ensures patients receive experienced, knowledgeable care.
Choosing the Right Approach for Your Discomfort
Traditional acupuncture stimulates specific points along the body’s energy pathways to promote natural healing. Dry needling targets deeper muscle trigger points to release tension and improve function. Both techniques use ultra-thin needles to achieve results, but their different approaches allow Dr. Segarra to select the most effective method for your specific condition. He may combine these methods with electrical stimulation for enhanced results when appropriate.
Gentle Options Provide Great Outcomes
Most patients find these therapies surprisingly comfortable. The insertion of the hair-thin needles causes minimal sensation—many don’t even realize when the needles are placed. Therapy sessions typically last 20-30 minutes, during which you can relax comfortably. Some individuals experience immediate relief, while others notice improvements over several sessions. You’ll remain fully clothed during treatment, only exposing the areas being treated as needed. We have seen results with conditions like:
- Chronic neck and back pain
- Headaches and migraines
- Sports injuries and muscle strains
- Joint pain and arthritis
- Sciatica and disc problems
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- TMJ pain and jaw tension
- Muscle tension and spasms
- Rotator cuff injuries
- Knee pain and inflammation
Delivering Safe and Effective Care
Your safety and comfort remain our top priorities throughout treatment. Dr. Segarra uses only sterile, single-use needles while following strict protocols for your protection. His experience working alongside other healthcare professionals allows him to coordinate care when needed. Many people find these therapies particularly beneficial when combined with our different treatment options for more complete relief.
