It’s a valuable procedure that can help you with your muscles, so long as it’s performed by a trained professional. That’s what you can benefit from at the Wholistic Health Centre. What Is Dry Needling? Dry needling is used when you’re suffering from dysfunctional or painful muscles. It relies on principles uncovered from research and surgery in the West. That makes it very different from a discipline like acupuncture. Dry needling involves using acupuncture needles but in a different way. In dry needling, the needles are pressed into trigger points within muscles across the body. These trigger points are what we feel when our muscles become knotted. These points are often tender and feel painful during specific movements. The needles inserted are called filiform because they’re short, fine, and manufactured from stainless steel. There is no fluid on or in these needles, and that’s where the term dry needling comes from. The needles will help to soothe knotted muscles and stop them from tensing up or spasming. The needles won’t remain in place for long, but the specific time depends on the judgement of the doctor performing the procedure. There are also other methods of dry needling. One is the in-and-out method, which uses quick movements similar to sparrow pecking. Another doesn’t involve your trigger points, and the needles are placed around the area of pain instead of directly into it. Dry Needling Treatment Before treatment can begin, you’ll need to be physically examined at the Wholistic Health Centre. If this goes well, then you’ll feel no pain when the needles are inserted. However, if you have short or sensitive muscles, then you might feel a cramp or ache in the muscle. This is caused by the muscle gripping the needle, and you’ll soon get used to it. That sensation is often followed by a sense of deep relaxation as the muscle loosens. This is the most vital part of dry needling, as it unknots the muscle. Dry needling is for this reason seen as a quick and easy way to bring back muscle function and ease pain. If a method is used that doesn’t involve the trigger points, then the feelings are similar. An example might be a region of the body that is restricted yet does not cause you any pain. Dry needling treatment is often recommended once or twice per week, but sometimes the intervals between treatments can be longer. It will all depend on your condition, the degree of scar tissue present, and how fast your body heals. That means the
