Physical therapy offers specialty programs for treatment of lymphedema, vestibular (dizziness) issues, pelvic floor issue (bowel, bladder, pelvic organ prolapse, and pelvic pain) and dry needling.

Dry Needling
Physical therapists at select UnityPoint locations are trained in myofascial trigger point dry needling. Dry needling is a procedure in which a solid filament needle is inserted into the skin and muscle directly at a myofascial trigger point to interrupt or break the pain cycle. Headaches, chronic pain, carpal tunnel syndrome and muscle overuse are a few examples of common conditions treated with dry needling.
