Evidence isn’t conclusive, but dry needling is believed to be effective in reducing mild to moderate muscle pain.

Dry needling is a therapeutic technique used by physiotherapists and other qualified practitioners where fine needles are inserted into trigger points (tight muscle knots) to release tension, reduce pain, and restore normal muscle function. Unlike acupuncture, it is based on Western anatomy rather than TCM principles.

You may feel a local twitch response when the needle hits a trigger point: a brief, sharp sensation followed by muscle relaxation. Most people experience some muscle soreness for 24–48 hours after treatment, similar to post-exercise soreness.

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.
