Common Conditions Treated with Dry Needling Dry needling has recently emerged as a popular treatment approach for myofascial trigger point pain among physiotherapists and remedial massage therapists. Dry needling reduces the transmission of pain signals in our spinal cord and increases the release of pain-relieving chemicals (endogenous opioids) in our brain. Physiotherapists frequently employ this dry needling therapy for chronic injuries, including: - Headaches - Muscle spasms - Osteoarthritis and musculoskeletal pain - Sciatica - Knee pain - Back pain - Neck pain - Plantar fasciitis - Shoulder impingement - Tennis elbow - Carpal tunnel syndrome During therapy, the needles remain in your muscle for a brief length of time, often 10 seconds to 20 minutes. This is dependent on the treatment site, the quantity of needles used, and therapy objectives.
