How may dry needling help
Dry needling focuses on improving muscle function by targeting specific areas, promoting tissue recovery, and restoring normal muscle tone, reducing the risk of further injury and pain.
When dry needling is integrated with osteopathic treatment, it may greatly accelerate recovery and relieve pain.
Who can use dry needling as a treatment
Dry needling can be used for nearly all patients, especially those with painful musculoskeletal conditions like migraines, neck pain, back pain, tennis elbow, arthritis, fibromyalgia, and other non-specific pain syndromes.
Dry needling can work alongside other osteopathic methods and exercise regimens, and may also be used with prescribed medications. If you’re unsure about suitability, consult your doctor. There are no age limits for treatment.
How do I know if dry needling will work for me?
Our osteopaths will evaluate your condition individually to determine if dry needling is appropriate for you.
Dry needling is commonly incorporated into a comprehensive treatment plan to help manage your injury and reduce pain, speeding up recovery.
It is important to understand:
- Your practitioner will let you know if they believe dry needling could help with your condition.
- Dry needling is entirely your choice, and there is no obligation to accept this treatment.
- There is no additional cost for this treatment.
- We strictly adhere to all Australian hygiene standards, ensuring that all needles are sterile and unused.

How does dry needling work?
Dry needling targets trigger points with needles to improve circulation, reduce muscle tension, and ease pain.
Is dry needling painful?
Dry needling may produce a mild pain response with slight muscle contraction, but this typically fades quickly, helping your body heal. The needles are very tiny, often 100 times smaller than a blood test needle, there is usually very little-to-no pain involved.
If you are concerned about this, reach out to our team today. We are happy to discuss your treatment so you can know what you may expect.
What if dry needling isn't right for me?
We assess your condition thoroughly and choose the most appropriate treatment. If dry needling isn’t right for you, we’ll recommend other options.
