Dry needling is available at the Monroe office on Royal Ave. Appointments are scheduled through the Monroe office, where dry needling can be paired with Mayfield Chiropractic care when appropriate.

Dr. Fournier provides dry needling at the Monroe office using a muscle-focused trigger-point approach for patients whose pain is tied to tight bands of muscle, guarded movement, or overuse. He evaluates each patient first and pairs needling with appropriate chiropractic, soft-tissue, mobility, or home-care recommendations.
Dry needling places a thin, sterile needle into or near a myofascial trigger point. A brief twitch, deep ache, or local release can occur when the irritated muscle responds. The goal is to reduce muscle guarding, improve comfort, and make movement-based care easier.

From ULM students and hospital shifts to I-20 commutes and weekend training, Monroe patients often need care for muscle tightness that keeps returning after rest, stretching, or massage alone.
The Monroe office is at 1400 Royal Ave, minutes from ULM, the medical district, West Monroe, and the I-20/US-165 corridor.
Healthcare, manufacturing, service, and office work all create repeat strain patterns through the neck, shoulders, low back, hips, and calves.
Dry needling can fit into care for overuse muscle pain, restricted range of motion, and recovery between practices or workouts.

Trigger-point dry needling uses thin, sterile, solid filiform needles placed into or near tight bands of muscle. The goal is to calm irritated myofascial trigger points, reduce muscle guarding, and help restore more comfortable movement. No medication is injected.
No. The needles look similar, but dry needling is based on anatomy, muscle trigger points, pain referral patterns, and movement findings. Acupuncture is a separate traditional Chinese medicine practice that uses a different diagnostic system and treatment framework.
Dry needling is commonly used as part of care for muscle pain and tightness, neck and shoulder tension, low-back and hip muscle guarding, sports or overuse soreness, restricted range of motion, and muscle contributors to tension-type headaches.
Dr. Fournier first evaluates whether dry needling fits your symptoms and health history. During treatment you may feel a small prick, deep ache, or brief muscle twitch. Mild soreness afterward can happen, similar to post-workout soreness, and your care plan may include mobility or home-care instructions.
