7. q “Dry Needling” involves inserting an acupuncture needle into a trigger
point and is typically used to treat the pain associated with injuries.
q A trigger point is a tender spot in a tight band of muscle which causes pain
when pressed or squeezed.
q They often occur as a result of neuromuscular dysfunction and in areas of
musculoskeletal stress.
q Everyone has trigger points but when they are deactivated it can allow for
more efficient movement, increased flexibility and lead to a decrease in
pain.

8. q Dry needling is an invasive procedure which involves inserting a thin
filament needle into the skin and muscle directly at a Myofascial trigger
point.
q The evidence base dry needling in various areas of physiotherapy, has
increased substantially over the past decade.
q Dry needling can be used for a variety of musculoskeletal problems.
q Neuromuscular dysfunction and imbalances are thought to be a primary
contributing factor to the symptoms.

treatment of acute and chronic back pain, chronic neck pain, tension type
and migraine headaches, pelvic girdle pain, knee osteoarthritis, lateral
elbow pain and shoulder conditions.

10. q The treatment of muscles has the greatest effect on reducing pain
mechanisms in the nervous system.

experienced in the past.
