Dry Needling

What is Dry Needling?

Dry Needling is a modern therapeutic technique used by physiotherapists to relieve muscle pain and tension. It involves the use of fine, sterile needles that are inserted into specific trigger points (tight muscle knots) to release tension, improve blood flow, and restore normal muscle function.

How Does It Work?

• Targets trigger points in muscles.

• Relieves tightness, stiffness, and chronic pain.

• Enhances blood circulation and healing response.

• Promotes natural recovery without medication.

Conditions Treated with Dry Needling

• Chronic muscle pain and stiffness

• Sports injuries

• Neck and back pain

• Shoulder pain (e.g., frozen shoulder)

• Headaches and migraines (tension-related)

• Sciatica and nerve-related discomfort

• Postural pain and strain

Benefits of Dry Needling

✔ Relieves pain quickly and effectively
✔ Reduces muscle tightness and spasms
✔ Improves joint mobility and flexibility
✔ Accelerates injury recovery
✔ Complements physiotherapy and rehabilitation treatments

Is Dry Needling Safe?

Yes. Dry Needling is a safe and evidence-based therapy when performed by a trained physiotherapist. The needles used are very thin, sterile, and disposable. Most patients experience only minimal discomfort and often feel immediate relief.
