The physiological basis for DN depends upon the targeted tissue and treatment objectives. The treatment of myofas cial trigger points ( TrPs) has a different physiological basis than treat ment of excessive muscle tension\, scar tissue\, fascia\, and connective t issues. TrPs are hyperirritable spots within a taut band of contractured s keletal muscle fibres that produce local and/or referred pain when stimula ted.\n\nTrPs are divided into active and latent TrPs dependent upon the de gree of irritability. Active TrPs are spontaneously painful\, while latent TrPs are only painful when stimulated. TrPs are physiological contracture s\, characterized by local ischemia and hypoxia\, local and referred pain and altered muscle activation patterns. TrPs activate muscle nociceptors a nd are peripheral sources of persistent nociceptive input\, thus contribut ing to the development of peripheral and central sensitization.\n\nDN can be divided into deep and superficial DN. Deep DN has been shown to inactiv ate TrPs by eliciting local twitch responses (LTR) which are modulated by the central nervous system. A LTR is a spinal cord reflex that is characte rized by an involuntary contraction of the contractured taut band\, which can be elicited by a snapping palpation or penetration with a needle. The LTR has been shown to be associated with alleviation and mitigation of spo ntaneous electrical activity or motor endplate noise\; a reduction of the concentration of numerous nociceptive\, inflammatory\, and immune system r elated chemicals and relaxation of the taut band.\n\nDeep DN of TrPs is as sociated with reduced local and referred pain\, improved range of motion a nd decreased TrP irritability both locally and more remotely. DN normalize s the chemical milieu and pH of skeletal muscle and restores local circula tion. Superficial DN is thought to activate mechanoreceptors coupled to sl ow conducting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and indirectly\, stimulate the anterior singular cortex. Superficial DN may also be mediated through stimulation of A delta fibres\, or via stretching of fibroblasts in connec tive tissue. Superficial DN is associated with reduced local and referred pain and improved range of motion.\n\nDN may be incorporated into a treatm ent plan when myofascial TrPs are present\, which may lead to impairments in posture\, pain and functional limitations. TrPs are sources of persiste nt peripheral nociceptive input and their inactivation is consistent with current pain management insights DN also is indicated with restrictions in range of motion due to contractured muscle fibres or taut bands\, or othe r soft tissue restrictions\, such as fascial adhesions or scar tissue. TrP s have been identified in numerous diagnoses and can treat radiculopathies \, joint dysfunction\, disk pathology\, tendinopathies\, cranio-mandibular dysfunction\, headaches and migraines\, tension-type headaches\, carpal t unnel syndrome\, computer-related or repetitive strain disorders\, whiplas h associated injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pelvic pain\, post-herpetic neu ralgia\, complex regional pain syndromes\, sports injuries\, nocturnal cra mps and other relatively uncommon disorders.\n\nIf you are a soft tissue t herapist and DN is in your scope of practice\, then is it time for you to learn this amazing new technique to help your patients and clients overcom e their pain and dysfunction.\n\nFor more information about Dry Needling\, click here.\n\nA Club Physio Dry Needling Course registration includes:\n \n All practice needles supplied for the course\;\n An illustrated elect ronic course manual (sent our weeks ahead of the course to help you best p repare)\;\n Tea\, coffee and snacks on each day\;\n Certificate of atten dance in printed or digital form (with CPD points depending on your areas approval / accreditation)\;\n Pathway to completing the Dry Needling Leve l 2 course and certifying as a dry needling practitioner\;\n One free lis ting of your practice on our website.\n\nPlease note:\nDry Needling course s are for healthcare therapists / professionals (clinical physiotherapists (PT's)\, chiropractors (DC's)\, osteopaths (DO's)\, podiatrists\, soft ti ssue and manual therapists\, kinesiologists\, doctors\, nurses\, medical s peciamists and acupuncturists) for whom dry needling is within your scope of practice and you are legally permitted to needle in your registered cou ntry / state.
