Needling
Dry needling is an effective physiotherapy technique used to relieve muscle pain, reduce tension, and improve movement. It targets tight muscle knots, also known as trigger points, that can cause ongoing pain, stiffness, and restricted mobility.
At Regenesis Physiotherapy, our dry needling treatment is performed by trained physiotherapists as part of a personalised plan. It is commonly used alongside manual therapy, stretching, and rehabilitation exercises to address the root cause of pain — not just the symptoms.
Dry needling is suitable for a wide range of conditions, including:
- Muscle tightness and spasms
- Neck, back, and shoulder pain
- Tension headaches, migraines
- Sciatica and lower back pain
- Tendonitis
- Repetitive strain injuries
- Sports injuries, overuse syndromes
- Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction

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
From the moment we step in, the staff are warm, welcoming, and the entire process is very professional. They don't just go through the motions, they take the time to thoroughly explain every step of the rehab exercises. They ensure my parents understand how to perform the movements correctly and why each one is important for their recovery.
If you're looking for a physio, this is the place to go!
I tried manual therapy during my visit, and every spot felt very precise and effective. As i plays volleyball and badminton regularly, my muscles are usually quite tight, and I also have some old wrist injuries. After the session, I genuinely felt much better. Really impressed with the overall experience !!! 😊
From the first visit, the team was super friendly and professional — they really took the time to understand my condition and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole session. After a few treatments, I can honestly feel the improvement.
So thankful for their care and kindness!
Wayne was very thorough in checking our conditions and suggested that we share a package. We were charged an assessment fee of RM100 and a filing form fee of RM15 each, so I’m not quite sure how the “free assessment” applies. I think the front staff should be more familiar with promotions displayed at the shop front.
I’ll update this review after we complete our 10 sessions to see if the treatment helps.
However, I came here by chance this time, and just one session of treatment made me feel a refreshing change like never before. On the third day after the treatment, I could even go back to the gym to exercise my core strength. I don't know how to describe this amazing feeling, but above all, I want to thank the doctors here.
谢谢 谢医生!
It is more than just a place for treatment but a space where care, comfort, and calm come together to support your well-being. I feel comfortable with the environment with soft natural lighting fills the room, complemented by warm, neutral tones and gentle music that soothes the senses . The place is neat and clean, create a relaxed, homelike atmosphere. The staff there will always greet you with a smile and speak with a calm, reassuring tone, making you feel heard and supported from the very beginning. I would recommend patient from all ages to visit REGENESIS , you will definitely regret if you dont 🙂
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!
Thank you Regenesis for helping me out. I truly value and appreciate the help and care rendered.
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.
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.
