Benefits of Dry Needling
Improves Range of Motion
Speeds Up Injury Recovery
Releases Myofascial Trigger Points
Enhances Muscle Function & Performance
Reduces Inflammation and Stiffness
Dry needling is particularly effective for those suffering from ongoing muscle tightness or pain that hasn’t responded to other treatments.
What to Expect During a Dry Needling Session
Your physiotherapist will first perform a thorough assessment to
identify affected muscles or trigger points. Fine needles are then gently inserted into these areas, which may cause a brief twitch response or mild discomfort. Most patients report feeling looser, lighter, or more mobile after treatment.
Sessions are safe, professional, and tailored to your comfort level.

What Is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a modern, evidence-based treatment used by physiotherapists to treat myofascial pain, muscle tightness, and movement dysfunction. Fine, sterile needles are inserted into specific trigger points (knots) in muscles, which stimulates a healing response,
improves blood flow, and reduces neuromuscular tension.
Unlike acupuncture, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine, dry needling is rooted in Western anatomical and neurophysiological principles.
