What Is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a modern, science-based technique used by physiotherapists to target muscle pain and tightness. It involves inserting fine, sterile needles into specific trigger points—those tight “knots” in your muscles that feel sore and tender to touch. By stimulating these points, dry needling helps reset muscle tone, improve blood flow, and reduce pain signals from the nervous system.
This technique is especially effective for treating musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction, whether from sports injuries, postural issues, or chronic tension.
How Is It Different from Acupuncture?
Dry Needling is based on modern Western medicine principles. Acupuncture, on the other hand, is rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It’s based on the idea of balancing the body’s energy, or “Qi”, which flows through specific pathways called meridians.
Dry Needling is often more intense. You might feel a quick muscle twitch, dull ache, or cramp when the needle hits a trigger point. The sensation is usually short-lived but effective.

What Our Customers Say
How We Work
01
Initial Assessment
Your physiotherapist will ask about your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle—this helps us understand the root cause of your pain or dysfunction.
02
During Needling
You might feel a brief “twitch response” when the needle reaches the right spot. This is a good sign: it means the muscle is releasing tension.
03
After Needling
After the session, it’s normal to feel mild soreness, heaviness, or tenderness in the treated area. This can last anywhere from a few hours up to 48 hours.
04
Improvement
Most people feel an improvement or reduction in pain within the first few sessions. For chronic conditions, a series of sessions may be needed.
