The First Law of Motion states, "A body at rest will remain at rest, and a body in motion will remain in motion unless it is acted upon by an external force." This is called Inertia, and simply means that things cannot start, stop, or change direction all by themselves. Sometimes, our bodies need a little push, or rekindling to overcome inertia, to get started, or regain the motivation towards reaching new heights.
This is especially true after injury, surgery or illness. A skilled and seasoned Physical Therapist can become that spark you need to achieve new goals. Utilizing the innate movement patterns, we can restore joint and whole body funtional motion, helping you THRIVE in your chosen sport. Dry needling, or intramuscular stimulation, uses micrfilaments to stimulate specific reactions in fascia and alleviate pain.
Established in 1998, we moved to our current location in Bath in 2008, then branched out to Damariscotta in 2015. I used Flaming Physical Therapy several times and was pleased with the personal care and results from Glenn and his staff.

People ask "Is Dry Needling painful"?
If the initial piercing of the skin is done correctly you may not feel more than pressure.
Some hypersensitive skin may feel the prick, some won't.
Then, the next sensation you feel is of the hypertonic muscle or tissue fully contracting when the needle reaches it.
The contraction, according to those who have received this treatment, "is not what you had expected".
The results are truly amazing.
In the 1940s, Dr. Janet Travell identified that muscular pain typically contained a point within the muscle that triggered the muscle to become hypertonic and painful.
