About the program
What is a dry needling certification course?
Trigger point dry needling has become a fundamental skill in every physical therapist’s toolkit. At Highbar, we want all our physical therapists to feel confident with this modality so they can provide the best possible care for their patients. Highbar’s in-house Dry Needling Certification program is taught by Board-certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialists with extensive knowledge and experience with dry needling.
It’s our goal to ensure that every therapist feels empowered to use this skill as soon as they step back into the clinic.

Hear from our faculty
“At Highbar, we believe in providing limitless professional development opportunities to clinicians as they grow throughout their career, whether they seek to grow into leaders as Clinic Directors or as clinical leaders, mentors, and experts. The development of our own Orthopedic Residency was a natural step to continue providing opportunities not only to residents but for our clinician-leaders as mentors and faculty.”
Hear from our faculty
“Dry needling has become such an important skill for physical therapists, which is why Dry Needling Levels 1 & 2 are offered to all clinicians. Also, those who complete these courses can continue on as teaching assistants or course faculty.”
