Dr. Jonathan Kuttner - NAT presenter, and winner of the NAMTPT lifetime achievement award (2014) for his contribution to trigger point therapy.

 

 Dry Needling Foundation Course

 

Dry needling is the use of acupuncture needles for the direct treatment of trigger points.

Dry needling shares many of the same ideas, approaches, and techniques as traditional Chinese acupuncture, but there are differences.

In this video, Dr. Jonathan Kuttner, who practices both acupuncture and dry needling, compares and presents the case for both modalities.
