Pain therapy with dry needling
Dry needling, the treatment of myofascial trigger points with acupuncture needles, can also effectively support the manual techniques.
A thin needle without medication – hence the name “dry” – is inserted precisely into the trigger point that is responsible for the current discomfort.
This relieves cramps, improves local blood circulation and reduces local inflammatory reactions.
It is used in the treatment of pain syndromes as a valuable addition to manual trigger point therapy in sports physiotherapy and orthopaedic rehabilitation.
