Dry Needling Therapy
Dry Needling
Evidence-based Dry Needling Therapy for relieving muscle pain, trigger points, sports injuries, and movement dysfunction while restoring mobility and improving muscle performance.
What Is Dry Needling Therapy?
Dry Needling Therapy is an advanced physiotherapy modality that involves the use of thin, sterile, and solid filament needles on myofascial trigger points, muscle knots, and dysfunctional soft tissues. Unlike the acupuncture method, dry needling uses modern-day anatomy, neurophysiology, and scientific knowledge of musculoskeletal medicine. The therapy serves the purpose of reducing pain, relaxing muscles, enhancing movement, and speeding up recovery.
How It Works
A trained physiotherapist inserts fine sterile needles into specific trigger points or tight muscle bands. This stimulates a local twitch response, improves blood circulation, reduces muscle tension, decreases inflammation, normalizes neuromuscular function, and promotes the body's natural healing mechanisms. Dry Needling is commonly combined with physiotherapy, stretching, strengthening, and movement correction for optimal results.
