Dry Needling
Dry needling is a treatment modality used to decrease pain, improve range of motion and promote overall healing through local, segmental, and systemic effects. Our certified athletic trainers use small, monofilament needles to disrupt muscle tension and trigger point activity to assist in creating the optimal environment for your body to heal and return to activity.

Normatec Recovery Session
Normatec compression therapy is a recovery modality designed to greatly improve recovery time and keep you performing at your highest level. The Normatec compression boots help move extra fluid in the legs from heavy training sessions or competition back up through the circulatory system to be redistributed throughout the body and allowing blood, oxygen and other nutrients to facilitate healing in your muscles.
