Dry Needling

If you’ve ever had a soft tissue injury, you’ve probably had some dry needling done on you as part of your treatment. But what exactly is Dry Needling?

Dry needling is a chiropractic and physiotherapy treatment based on the Trigger Point theory of discrete irritable points in skeletal muscle and fascia which are usually painful, tender and can radiate pain. Essentially, Myofascial Trigger Points are tight spasming areas within muscles which cause a lot of pain or dysfunction. Dry needling benefits patients suffering a range of pain and can be used for the treatment of arthritis, lower back pain as well as a treatment for sciatica.
