Do you suffer from chronic pain, muscle tension or inflammation?

Dry needling is a minimally invasive technique whereby thin, sterile needles are inserted into specific areas of the muscle to stimulate healing.

Dry needling has its roots in traditional Chinese medicine, where acupuncture has been practiced for centuries. However, dry needling as we know it today was developed in the 1980s by Dr. Chan Gunn, a Canadian physician. Gunn’s work built upon the principles of acupuncture, but with a focus on Western medical principles and a more targeted approach to treating musculoskeletal pain.

Dry needling has been shown to be effective in treating a range of musculoskeletal conditions, including:

1. Chronic pain: Dry needling can help reduce chronic pain by stimulating the release of pain-relieving chemicals, such as endorphins and opioids.

2. Muscle tension: Dry needling can help relax tense muscles, reducing muscle spasms and improving range of motion.

3. Inflammation: Dry needling can help reduce inflammation by stimulating the release of anti-inflammatory chemicals.

4. Scar tissue: Dry needling can help break up scar tissue, promoting healing and reducing pain.

Dry needling has been shown to be effective in treating a range of musculoskeletal conditions including back and neck pain, tennis elbow, piriformis syndrome, Achilles tendinopathy and many more.
