Dry needling: are we hitting the mark?
NCT ID NCT07074249
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study will test how often dry needling reaches the correct muscle in the lower back. Twenty adults with low back pain will receive dry needling, and ultrasound will check if the needle went where intended. The goal is to see how accurate the technique is, not to treat pain.
