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.

Being pain-free is really priceless, especially if it’s affecting the nerve, every min every day, 24x7!I was diagnosed with severe cervical spondylosis - neck bone degeneration esp at c5-c7 with bone spur causing very bad nerve pain at my back shoulder blade and right arm , literally 24x7 since Aug 2024. It really affected my day to day life. A well-known specialist surgeon insisted for immediate surgery but with no guarantee that all will be well. However, I opted for physio, as per another Dr’s recommendation. Unexpectedly came across Regenesis via internet good reviews.That was the best decision I made! Wayne was very patient, knowledgeable, explained to me on every process he did, constantly reminding me on the required exercises and the dos & don’ts. Due to my severe issue, I had visited Regenesis daily for the first 2 weeks & 2 days once later, diligently. After 5.5 mths, the pain subsided ..the visits were then changed to twice weekly just to make sure all in order, till today!Wayne from Regenesis comes highly recommended! This is a sincere and honest testimonial based on my real experience!

Excellent physiotherapy clinic for treating sports injuries. Ms. Chia was highly professional and effectively resolved my wrist and knee issues in fewer than five sessions. She also provided practical home exercises and workouts that helped accelerate my recovery. I highly recommend seeking out Ms. Chia for anyone in need of quality physiotherapy care

Ms Chia is very detail and experience when analysing my shoulder injury (more than 10 years). The road to recovery is a journey but at least the shoulder pain has reduced a lot after the treatment though I still need to do more weight training to strengthen the muscles. Highly recommend this centre especially if you have old injury that has been bothering you.

My cases is L1 fracture,and my first physiotherapy experience after my surgery was excellent, thanks to Dr. Wayne! He was well-mannered, professional, and thoughtful throughout the entire process. He took the time to listen, explain the treatment plan clearly, and ensure I was comfortable every step of the way. His expertise and genuine care made a real difference. Highly recommended!

It has a great experience and I have been there for 12 treatments for a lower back pain. The pain I have suffered all this years is now somewhat lessened after each treatment. In fact after my last treatment, it has improved tremendously. I am unable to continue my treatments as I have been asked by my employer to be relocated overseas for a one year assignment. Upon return if I need their assistance again, I will surely look for them once again.Thank you Regenesis for helping me out. I truly value and appreciate the help and care rendered.

I did a walk-in one evening after spraining my ankle, not wanting to risk it getting worse - especially knowing how notoriously chronic sprain injuries can get if left alone. Given the simplicity of the injury, I expected nothing more than a severity assessment and some home care advice.Instead, Wayne very quickly knew the effective treatment to apply - a combination of massages and dry needling that provided immediate relief. Every technique felt very precise and intentional, which was clearly backed by deep expertise and knowledge. I still received the expected care advice, but I also walked out of the clinic losing the limp that I walked in with.By the next day, my ankle felt almost back to normal SURPRISINGLY - when otherwise, I’m sure it would have continued hurting for days. I know exactly who to thank for this. Don't worry Wayne, I'll still take it easy for the next two weeks at least haha.

Fabulous physiotherapists in Regenesis, I love coming here for treatments and looking forward to a chill chat while in the treatment. Always prompt and easy to book and service top notch! They’ve also open early and evening which is a plus point. Parking is easy and after treatment, lots of food to eat. Just book it, you won’t regret it.

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.

FAQ on Dry Needling

Frequently Asked Questions

You might feel a quick twitch or mild discomfort when the needle hits a trigger point, but it usually lasts only a second or two. Most patients find the overall experience tolerable.

The number of sessions depends on your condition’s severity and response to treatment. Some people feel relief after one or two sessions, while others may need ongoing therapy.

Minor side effects can include soreness, bruising, or slight bleeding at the needle site. Serious complications are rare when performed by trained professionals.

Yes, dry needling can reduce muscle-related chronic pain by releasing tightness and improving blood flow, but it’s often part of a broader treatment plan.

Some patients experience immediate relief, but for others, it may take a few sessions and complementary therapies to notice significant improvement.
