Dry needling is an advanced therapeutic technique used by physiotherapists to relieve muscle pain, stiffness, and dysfunction. It involves the insertion of fine, sterile needles into specific trigger points—tight bands or knots within the muscles that can cause local or referred pain. Unlike acupuncture, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine, dry needling is rooted in modern Western anatomy and science. By targeting myofascial trigger points, dry needling helps to reduce muscle tension, improve blood flow, restore normal movement patterns, and accelerate the body’s natural healing process. This treatment is commonly used for conditions such as chronic pain, sports injuries, neck and back pain, tendonitis, and headaches. Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure and often report noticeable improvements in pain and mobility after just a few sessions. Dry needling is a safe and effective tool when integrated into a comprehensive physiotherapy treatment plan.
