Dry needling is a technique where acupuncture needles are used to treat muscles experiencing myofascial pain and elicit a healing response. A “dry needle” (needle without medication) is inserted into specific points of the muscle, known as trigger points, in order to relax the muscle and release the pressure built up in that point. Dry needling technique is backed by scientific evidence and is increasingly popular in Physiotherapy due to its numerous health benefits in both pain relief and improving overall wellness.
