    I have a client who has hip pain. They’ve found nothing on the MRI/Xray, etc. and 6 weeks of PT did nothing. She has poor internal and external ROM and pain over the ASIS. All other ROM is pretty normal. She has weak glute med and overall core strength. Any suggestions for dry needling protocol?

    Hi Joanne-

    I don’t mean to not answer your question, but I would ask, what are you trying to accomplish by dry needling her? What is her pain generator, if her MRI and xrays are negative. Where do you think the pain is coming from? I would caution against DN if you are unsure where the pain is coming from or don’t have a specific goal that you think DN can directly impact.

    Food for thought. Let me know if you have other details. I just would caution against needling bc nothing else has worked.

    May not be the answer you are looking for, but I hope helpful.
