In 1999, I began researching this theory in earnest and discovered a wide and extensive body of literature, dating as far back as the mid-1940’s. This knowledge base, together with my own, and Dr. Dorin’s, empirical data, enabled me to develop a technical framework for dry needling.
I have since developed an efficient and effective clinical- and evidence-based approach to dry needling that is easier to administer and more comfortable for the patient. As both a clinician and a patient I am interested in what works.
I have experienced every treatment method for my own back, except for surgery, and dry needling is one of the best. In fact, many of my students who have had other training have found my approach to be much better tolerated by, and more effective for their patients, and even themselves. Thankfully, I have found that Dry Needling in general, and the Fishkin Dry Needling Technique in particular, has been a major contributor in keeping both myself and my patients healthy.
My own experiences and challenges led me to advocate for the inclusion of Dry Needling in the State of Maryland’s scope of practice for the chiropractic profession. I have since advised many state professional organizations and state regulatory agencies as to the importance of the professionals to have this in their scope and for the citizens of those states to have access to this service.
I am committed to expanding the scope of practice for Dry Needling and training so that the public can get the help it needs to alleviate their suffering and reduce their dependence on addictive medications.
I work with and train healthcare providers in other disciplines, including physical therapists, occupational therapists, nurse practitioners, medical doctors, physician assistants, athletic trainers, and acupuncturists. I trained the clinical faculty at National University of Health Sciences, a premier chiropractic institution where these concepts are being integrated into the core curriculum. I have also trained US military healthcare personnel in the art and science of dry needling therapy.
