Dry needling is a targeted, evidence-based treatment used to relieve muscle pain, reduce tension, and improve movement.
Dry needling is used to treat tight or painful areas within muscles, known as trigger points. By inserting fine needles into these areas, we help release tension, reduce pain, and restore normal muscle function.
It is often used alongside chiropractic care and rehabilitation to support faster recovery and long-term results.
Dry needling involves inserting very fine, sterile needles into specific points within the muscle.
This creates a local response that helps the muscle relax, improves blood flow, and reduces pain. It can also help reset normal muscle function and improve range of movement.
Treatment is tailored to your condition and is often combined with other therapies to maximise results.
Dry needling is a safe and widely used treatment for musculoskeletal pain when performed by qualified professionals. It is commonly used in physiotherapy, sports medicine, and chiropractic care.
Many patients experience immediate relief or improved movement following treatment.
The number of sessions will depend on your condition, but dry needling is often used as part of a wider treatment plan to support recovery and prevent recurrence.
During treatment, fine needles are inserted into targeted areas of muscle. You may feel a brief discomfort or twitch response, followed by a release in tension.
After treatment, muscles often feel looser with improved movement and reduced pain.
