Dry needling may be used when trigger points or muscle sensitivity are contributing to pain and restricted movement. It is considered alongside assessment findings and combined with exercise, education and other physiotherapy care where appropriate.
What we help with
- Muscle trigger points and local sensitivity
- Neck, shoulder, back, hip or limb muscle pain
- Movement restriction linked with muscle guarding
- Pain management as part of rehabilitation
How care works
- Assessment to decide whether dry needling is suitable for your presentation
- Use of fine, sterile needles with clear explanation before treatment
- Follow-up movement, strengthening or self-management strategies
