Dry Needling is a highly effective physiotherapy technique used to release tight muscles, deactivate trigger points, and reduce chronic pain. At PhysioCare Physiotherapy Clinic, our certified physiotherapists use thin, sterile needles to target deep muscle tension, improve blood flow, and restore pain-free movement.
It is especially effective for sports injuries, sciatica, neck & shoulder stiffness, back spasms, and chronic muscular pain.
Dry Needling uses fine needles inserted into tight muscles or trigger points. This helps:
The therapy targets deeper tissues that hands alone cannot reach.
We evaluate:
Muscle tightness
Trigger point areas
Pain pattern
Posture imbalances
Movement restrictions
This ensures safe and targeted needle placement.
During the session:
Thin, sterile needles are inserted into trigger points
You may feel a mild twitch response (normal)
Treatment lasts 5–15 minutes
No medication is injected
Completely safe when done by trained physiotherapists
The twitch response helps release the muscle instantly.
To maximize results, we combine needling with:
Myofascial release
Deep tissue therapy
Joint mobilization
Stretching techniques
This enhances relaxation, mobility, and pain relief.
Once muscles are relaxed, we include:
Muscle strengthening
Posture correction
Flexibility training
Functional movement retraining
This prevents the trigger points from coming back.
We guide you on:
Hydration after needling
Heat/ice use
Gentle stretching
Temporary soreness (normal for 12–24 hrs)
Activity modification
Muscle knots & trigger points
Neck & upper back stiffness
Sciatica
Shoulder & rotator cuff tightness
Knee/hip muscle tension
Plantar fasciitis
Tennis elbow
Headaches & migraines
Sports injuries
Chronic muscular pain
Athletes
Office workers
Gym-goers
Individuals with chronic pain
People with posture-related tension
Patients with muscle spasms
Anyone with persistent tightness
Dry Needling is safe for most adults when performed by trained therapists.
