Dry Needling
Often people experience excellent pain reduction and muscle release with dry needling when other treatment methods have failed.
When I did athletics at one stage I couldn’t run without my hamstrings pulling every time, even though I was flexible enough to do the splits. I had triggerpoints all through my glutes and releasing them with dry needles fixed it straight away. This chronic injury was just gone in a few needling sessions. I was able to run flat out a week later with no tightness. It’s that effective!
Is it painful?
- No
- No needle pricking feeling.
- You will experience muscles released instantly with a twitch sensation which can be strange at first but people begin to embrace it.
- You will not feel anything at all with the needle penetration through normal healthy muscle tissue.
Is it dangerous?
- not when executed by a qualified technician with adequate anatomy knowledge.
- minimal risks and much safer than an injection.
