First seen Apr 25, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at whether dry needling—inserting thin needles into a ligament in the buttock—can help relieve pain and improve movement in people with sacroiliac joint dysfunction, a common cause of low back and pelvic pain. Sixty adults aged 40–65 with confirmed sacroiliac joint problems will receive either real dry needling plus standard physical therapy or a sham (fake) needling plus standard therapy. The goal is to see if adding dry needling leads to better pain relief and function.
