Dry Needling and Sue Falsone
Dry needling, as a blend of skill and art, is performed by an expert health professional who uses his knowledge of dry needles to stimulate the athlete’s muscles. At SFDN, founder and CEO Sue Falsone founded a hands-on dry needling approach that goes by Structure & Function: Dry Needling! Throughout the decade in the field, Falsone garnered a great amount of expertise which she then used to invent her dry needling approach. As a true pioneer in her area of expertise, Sue worked as Head Athletic Trainer for the LA Dodgers organization, which made her the very first female to assume the role of Head Athletic Coach in the four most important sports in America. The the US Men’s National Soccer team also recognized her competence and offered her the role of Head Athletic Trainer.
