Dry Needling is a form of needling therapy that uses very fine, thin needles — containing no medication — inserted directly into "trigger points", commonly known as "muscle knots". These are areas where muscle fibres have contracted and tightened to the point that blood circulation becomes restricted. Left untreated, these points accumulate into sources of chronic pain that are often difficult to reach through oral medication alone. The mechanical stimulation of the needle encourages the muscle to release, improves blood circulation, and supports the body's natural recovery process.
The term "dry" refers to the fact that the needle used is solid — it contains no medication and nothing is injected into the body. This distinguishes it from trigger point injections, in which a physician uses a hollow needle to inject a local anaesthetic or other medication directly into the affected point.
Each session takes approximately 5–15 minutes, depending on the location of pain and the number of muscle groups with trigger points being treated.
For longer-lasting results, patients are encouraged to attend sessions on a consistent schedule as recommended by their physician.
