How may dry needling help
Dry needling is a targeted treatment aimed at enhancing muscle function by encouraging tissue recovery and restoring normal muscle tone, preventing further damage and pain.
Combining dry needling with osteopathy can significantly enhance pain reduction and tissue recovery.
Who can use dry needling as a treatment
Patients with musculoskeletal pain, including migraines, back pain, tennis elbow, and fibromyalgia, can benefit greatly from dry needling treatment.
When combined with other osteopathic techniques and exercise programs, dry needling can enhance results. It can also be used with medications, but it’s important to consult your doctor if unsure. There are no age restrictions for the treatment.
How do I determine if dry needling is suitable for me?
Each patient will receive a personalized assessment from our osteopaths to see if dry needling is right for their condition.
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 could aid in your recovery, your practitioner will discuss it with you.
- Dry needling is entirely your choice, and there is no obligation to accept this treatment.
- There is no additional cost for this treatment.
- All needles are sterile and new, with strict compliance to Australian hygiene protocols.
All your dry needling questions answered
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?
Our practitioners evaluate your needs to find the best treatment for your condition. If dry needling isn’t suitable, we’ll suggest alternative treatments.
