Needling

Needling in Physiotherapy: An Overview

Needling in physiotherapy, also known as dry needling, is a technique used by physiotherapists to treat pain and movement issues associated with myofascial trigger points. It involves inserting thin needles into or near these trigger points to stimulate muscles, which helps relieve pain and improve range of motion.

Types of Needling

• Superficial Dry Needling: Involves inserting the needle up to 10 mm into the subcutaneous tissue. It is less invasive and reduces the risk of significant tissue trauma.

• Deep Dry Needling: Involves inserting the needle beyond the subcutaneous tissue into the muscle to reach myofascial trigger points.

Benefits of Needling

• Pain Relief: By targeting trigger points, needling can alleviate pain and discomfort.

• Improved Range of Motion: Needling helps relax muscle tension, allowing for better movement.

• Enhanced Recovery: It promotes blood flow and reduces muscle tightness, aiding in faster recovery.

• Reduced Swelling: Needling can help reduce swelling by improving lymphatic drainage.

• Correcting Faulty Biomechanics: Needling can help correct improper movement patterns and improve posture.

Application Techniques

• Skin Preparation: Ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free of any irritation or rash.

• Needle Insertion: Insert the needle into the appropriate muscle area to target trigger points.

• Removal: Carefully remove the needle to avoid skin irritation.

Common Uses

• Sports Injuries: Used to treat and prevent sports-related injuries.

• Post-Surgical Support: Provides support during the healing process after surgery.

• Chronic Conditions: Effective for managing conditions like arthritis and tendonitis.
