What is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a treatment technique using thin needles to release muscle tension and promote healing. It's an effective method for managing pain, improving movement, and enhancing recovery.
How does it work?
Dry needling works at the both the site of pain and on the brain’s pain centre. The needle is passed into the muscle through the ‘knotted’ tight region eliciting a reflex which relaxes the muscle. The brain also releases endorphins during the technique which leads to pain relief.
What does it feel like?
The needles are very fine, only slightly thicker than a human hair. Little pain is felt when the needle penetrates the muscle. However, typically the physio will move the needle back and forward through the muscle to treat different regions and this will cause moderate discomfort. Frequently you will feel the muscle twitch. Usually there will be some treatment soreness for 1-2 days following the treatment, similar to that of a deep tissue massage. Once this resolves the patient will report some improvement in symptoms.
