Dry needling<\/h2>\n

Dry needling<\/span><\/a>\u00a0is used in the treatment of pain of musculoskeletal origin.\u00a0The use of a “dry”\u00a0needle,\u00a0 meaning\u00a0without\u00a0medication,is\u00a0inserted to the muscle to deactivate trigger\u00a0points (<\/span>taut band<\/span>s of muscle\u00a0fibres\u00a0located within a muscle). Trigger\u00a0points exist naturally in latent form, causing no symptoms or in so called active form which causes pain that might radiate to other areas. With the help of the dry needle the therapist aims to deactivate the trigger\u00a0point in order to reduce muscle tension and relieve pain.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Dry needling is usually not a\u00a0stand alone\u00a0treatment modality but is frequently used in conjunction with other manual therapies.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In some rare cases, the following 24 hours after the treatment, there is a chance of a slight transient increase in symptoms in the affected area in the form of pressure or numbness before the pain relief is achieved.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
