Releasing tight muscles and easing pain from the inside out.
Dry needling targets trigger points, which are tight and tender spots within muscles that often cause referred pain or limit movement. A very fine, sterile, acupuncture needle is inserted directly into these points to release tension, improve blood flow, and restore mobility.
Why it
works
Trigger points can form after injury, stress, poor posture, or overuse. By stimulating the affected muscle with a needle, we interrupt the pain cycle and reset the muscle’s natural function. This helps reduce pain, improve movement, and support healing.
What to
expect
Your physiotherapist will identify the trigger points and gently insert an acupuncture needle into the area. You might feel a twitch, cramp, or dull ache during treatment. This is a normal and therapeutic response. Sessions are usually short and often part of a broader physiotherapy plan.
Why clients
value it
Dry needling often provides quick relief for stubborn muscle tightness or pain that has not yet responded to stretching or massage. Many clients notice better mobility and less discomfort within hours or days.
