Dry Needling

Dry Needling FAQs

What does dry needling actually do?

Dry needling involves the insertion of fine needles into the skin and muscle tissue to reduce muscular and trigger-point pain.

What are the risks of dry needling?

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.

Is dry needling worth it?

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

What is the difference between dry needling and acupuncture?

Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese medicine which has been around for centuries, unlike dry needling which has only been available in recent years. Both acupuncture and dry needling see thin needles inserted into the skin or muscle to treat pain. However, dry needling is only used to treat muscular pain, whereas acupuncture treats a range of physical and psychological conditions, and clears blockages in the body’s energy flow (qi) to improve overall health.

How much does dry needling cost?

You’re likely to to pay around ZAR 1,950 for a dry needling treatment, but prices may vary from ZAR 1,950 to ZAR 1,950 in Sinoville.

What happens to your body after dry needling?

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.

Dry needling can hit your trigger points where it hurts. Which is handy, as they can be painful little things.

Not to be confused with acupuncture, these little needles are inserted into sensitive trigger points or muscle knots to reduce tightness and increase blood flow. Dry needling causes muscle fibres to relax, and this can reduce pain instantly. It's often used in conjunction with deep tissue massage or physiotherapy on shoulders or backs, and you could see an improvement in mobility after a session. Dry needling takes around 1 hour 30 minutes on average, and prices start at ZAR 1,950 in Sinoville.
