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.
Using dry needling alongside osteopathic care can provide a potent solution for reducing pain and restoring tissue function.
Who should consider dry needling
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 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 tell if dry needling is right 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:
- If dry needling is considered beneficial, your practitioner will discuss it with you.
- You have the freedom to decide whether dry needling is right for you, with no pressure to agree.
- 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?
Dry needling involves inserting needles into trigger points to enhance circulation, relieve tension, and alleviate pain.
Is dry needling painful?
While dry needling may cause a brief pain response due to muscle contractions, this discomfort is short-lived and aids in recovery. The needles are incredibly small, about 100 times thinner than a blood test needle, causing little 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.
What if dry needling isn't right for me?
