How may dry needling help
Dry needling helps improve muscle function by targeting specific areas, supporting tissue recovery, and restoring proper muscle tone, which can prevent further tissue damage and pain.
When dry needling is integrated with osteopathic treatment, it may greatly accelerate recovery and relieve pain.
Who can benefit from dry needling
Dry needling is effective for a wide range of patients, particularly those with musculoskeletal pain conditions like migraines, neck pain, and fibromyalgia.
Dry needling can complement osteopathic techniques and exercise programs, and may be used alongside prescribed medications. However, it might not be suitable for everyone, so consult your doctor first if you’re unsure. There are no age restrictions for treatment.
How can I find out if dry needling is the right treatment for me?
Our osteopaths will evaluate your condition individually to determine if dry needling is appropriate for you.
As part of a comprehensive treatment plan, dry needling helps to manage your condition and shorten recovery time by alleviating pain.
It is important to understand:
- If dry needling is considered beneficial, your practitioner will discuss it with you.
- It’s up to you whether to try dry needling, and there’s no obligation to proceed with this treatment.
- There is no additional cost for this treatment.
- All needles are sterile and new, with strict compliance to Australian hygiene protocols.

How does dry needling work?
Dry needling involves inserting needles into trigger points to enhance circulation, relieve tension, and alleviate 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.
