At SFDN, founder and Chief Executive Officer Sue Falsone launched a hands-on dry needling system named SFDN! Over the course of her years in the industry, Falsone garnered a great amount of experience which she used to invent her dry needling approach. As an original leader in her field, Sue served as Head Athletic Trainer for the Los Angeles Dodgers, which made her the first female to assume the role of Head Athletic Coach in the four most important sports in America. The American Men’s National Soccer team also recognized her skills and gave her the job of Head Athletic Trainer.
