A Smarter Approach to Back Pain: How Dry Needling and Chiropractic Care Work Together

Written By Key to Change

If you’ve struggled with back pain, you know how frustrating it can be when relief feels temporary. Maybe you’ve tried adjustments, stretching, or massage — but the discomfort keeps returning.

That’s why at Key to Change Wellness, we often combine dry needling and chiropractic care — a powerful duo for addressing both the symptoms and the source of your pain.

What Each Technique Does

  • Chiropractic adjustments restore motion and alignment to your spine and joints, helping your nervous system function optimally.

  • Dry needling targets tight, overworked muscles and trigger points that pull on those same joints — often the root cause of recurring pain.

When used together, they create lasting change: the needle releases tension in the muscle, and the adjustment helps your body maintain better balance and movement.

The Benefits of This Combined Approach

Patients often report:

  • Faster, longer-lasting pain relief

  • Reduced muscle tension and inflammation

  • Improved posture and mobility

  • Better recovery after workouts or injuries

This approach is ideal for conditions like:

  • Chronic or acute low back pain

  • Sciatica

  • Hip or SI joint dysfunction

  • Postural pain from long hours sitting or standing

Lasting Relief Starts with Root-Cause Care

Our goal is never a “quick fix.” It’s to help your body move and function better so you can stay active, strong, and pain-free.
