Dry Needling

Dry Needling, a form of acupuncture, is an effective treatment for managing tension and trigger points in muscles. Often times, needling can be more effective than massage treatments as the needle can reach much deeper trigger points to stimulate blood flow to a very specific point in the muscle. It is best used in combination with further hands-on work and exercises to be done at home to provide long lasting results. Needling will not be done without your consent so there is no need to worry if you don’t like needles. Feel free to ask your physiotherapist for more information!
