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.
Combining dry needling with osteopathy can significantly enhance pain reduction and tissue recovery.
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 determine if dry needling is suitable for me?
Our osteopaths will assess your specific condition to decide if dry needling is the best treatment 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:
- Your practitioner will explain if they think dry needling may be beneficial for you.
- 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.
All your dry needling questions answered
How does dry needling work?
By placing needles into trigger points, dry needling promotes better circulation, reduces muscle tension, and potentially lessens pain.
Is dry needling painful?
Dry needling may cause a brief pain response, with a slight muscle contraction upon needle insertion. This discomfort is usually short-lived and encourages recovery. The needles are very small, about 100 times thinner than a blood test needle, resulting in minimal to no pain.
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.
