Assessments will be of self-reported outcomes, self-reported pain, gait, balance, muscle stiffness, and pain pressure threshold. The secondary purpose of this study is to determine the validity of dry needling specific muscles of the lower extremity based upon needle placement, location relative to anatomical structures and accuracy of needle placement in muscle using ultrasound imaging.
