Biomedical Dry Needling
Tyler Van Impe-Selinger & Theresa Ziegler, Physiotherapists

Dry Needling is the treatment where very fine stainless-steel needles are inserted and manipulated into trigger points in muscle and fascia. 
The "Dry" component means that the needles have no bore in them and are unable to inject medicinal liquids.

Diagnosis of the dysfunctional tissue requires a thorough physiotherapy examination.

The treatment goal is to produce a neurophysiological effect that helps to reduce pain and inflammation, improve range of motion, tolerance to movement, normalize the nervous system, and optimize the body's performance.
 

Some of the conditions treated;

• Sports injuries
• Muscle strains - ie quadriceps, hamstrings, calf, hips, rotator cuff, neck, back
• Nerve pain - ie sciatica, nerve impingement
• Repetitive strain injuries - ie tennis elbow, jumper's knee, plantarfasciitis 
• Tight and restricted muscles
• Motor control issues

Treatment with Dry Needling in conjunction with Manual Therapy and Exercise is a fantastic way to ensure your neuromuscular system is working efficiently in recovery and that you are reducing the risk of further injury.
