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 can benefit from 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.
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 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.
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 explain if they think dry needling may be beneficial for you.
- You are not required to agree to dry needling; the decision to proceed is entirely yours.
- There is no additional cost for this treatment.
- We follow all Australian hygiene guidelines carefully, using only sterile, new needles for your safety.
Everything you need to know about dry needling
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?
A brief pain response may occur during dry needling, caused by a slight muscle contraction when the needle is inserted. This usually dissipates quickly, promoting recovery. The tiny needles, often 100 times smaller than a blood test needle, cause 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?
Our practitioners evaluate your needs to find the best treatment for your condition. If dry needling isn’t suitable, we’ll suggest alternative treatments.
