Dry Needling
This is a treatment used by our physiotherapists who have been specifically trained in this modality, for the treatment of pain and movement impairment. It is similar but not the same as acupuncture, and involves the insertion through the skin of a “dry” (or hollow) needle directly into muscle. It is possible that you could experience symptom relief even after the first session. It is commonly used to treat muscle spasm and trigger points.
