Myofascial Dry Needling is an effective technique for releasing trigger points and tight bands of muscle fibres.

Single use acupuncture needles are used to stimulate the muscle and send messages to the brain to let the muscles relax and release.

Some after soreness is often experienced and can be managed with heat and NSAIDS.

Small bruises may sometimes occur as the needle touches the side of a capillary.

Emotional release is also a side effect of Dry Needling, though not common, it can cause emotional outbursts if you are suffering high anxiety, stress or emotional trauma.
