Dry needling is commonly used for neck and shoulder pain, lower back pain, headaches, sports injuries, plantar fasciitis, and muscle tightness. It is particularly effective for treating myofascial trigger points that cause localised or referred pain.

The insertion of needles stimulates blood flow and cellular repair, however dry needling is likely to cause your muscle to cramp and twitch involuntarily. This is normal, and known as the local twitch response.

Side effects aren’t common, but could include bleeding or bruising at the needle insertion points. You may also experience dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, and an increase in pain for 24-48 hours after your treatment. If you’re concerned, ask your therapist to talk you through the risks and side effects before your appointment.
