Dry needling is one of the tools in our toolbox that we can use to help you get back to Being You!
All our physios are trained in dry needling and can offer dry needling as part of your physio treatment at no extra cost if it is appropriate and would aid your recovery.
What is Dry Needling?
Dry needling uses the same needles used in acupuncture but uses them in a different way. Where acupuncture points are developed around the flow of ‘qi’ and ‘meridians’ around the body, dry needling is more anatomically based. What this means is dry needling targets the specific muscles or tendons we are working on that we believe would benefit from the effects of needling.
What are the effects of needling?
Needling can be very effective in helping release tension and tightness from a muscle and can help with decreasing trigger points or ‘knots’ in muscles.
Dry needling can also help with pain relief around a sore or injured area and assist with stimulating healing responses around an injury site.
If you are interested in dry needling, or would like to know more, simply ask your physio at your next appointment to see if it would be beneficial for you.
