At Nishta Physiotherapy, we offer Dry Needling Therapy as a highly effective treatment for relieving muscular pain and improving mobility. If you suffer from muscle knots, stiffness, or chronic pain, this therapy could be the solution you need to achieve faster recovery and enhanced movement. Our skilled physiotherapists are trained in dry needling to target and treat specific muscle groups that are contributing to your discomfort.
Dry Needling Therapy is a treatment technique that uses a thin, sterile needle to target muscle trigger points (also known as “muscle knots”). Unlike acupuncture, which focuses on balancing energy flow, dry needling works specifically to release tight muscle fibers, alleviate pain, and improve movement. By inserting the needle into the affected area, we stimulate the muscle and help it release the built-up tension, promoting faster healing and reducing discomfort.
The process of dry needling involves the insertion of a thin needle directly into the trigger point, which is a tight or hyper-irritable spot within a muscle. The needle is gently inserted into the skin and muscle to create a mild local twitch response, which helps release the knot and increase blood flow to the area. This action promotes healing by relaxing the muscle, reducing inflammation, and increasing oxygen and nutrient delivery to the affected tissues.
Dry needling also helps the nervous system reset the muscle’s tone, allowing for better muscle function, pain relief, and improved range of motion.
