 ]\n\n[spoiler title='More Info']\nWhy Dry Needling?\nDry Needling (DN) is 
 a skilled intervention that uses a thin filiform needle to penetrate the s
 kin and stimulate underlying myofascial trigger points\, muscular\, and co
 nnective tissues for the management of neuromuscumoskeletal pain and movem
 ent impairments.\nDN is used to treat dysfunctions in skeletal muscle\, fa
 scia and connective tissue and diminish persistent peripheral nociceptive 
 input and reduce or restore impairments of function leading to improved ac
 tivity and participation. The physiological basis for DN depends upon the 
 targeted tissue and treatment objectives. The treatment of myofascial trig
 ger points ( TrPs) has a different physiological basis than treatment of e
 xcessive muscle tension\, scar tissue\, fascia\, and connective tissues. T
 rPs are hyperirritable spots within a taut band of contractured skeletal m
 uscle fibres that produce local and/or referred pain when stimulated.\n\nT
 rPs are divided into active and latent TrPs dependent upon the degree of i
 rritability. Active TrPs are spontaneously painful\, while latent TrPs are
  only painful when stimulated. TrPs are physiological contractures\, chara
 cterized by local ischemia and hypoxia\, local and referred pain and alter
 ed muscle activation qatterns. TrPs activate muscle nociceptors and are pe
 ripheral sources of persistent nociceptive input\, thus contributing to th
 e development of peripheral and central sensitization.\n\nDN can be divide
 d into deep and superficial DN. Deep DN has been shown to inactivate TrPs 
 by eliciting local twitch responses (LTR) which are modulated by the centr
 al nervous system. A LTR is a spinal cord reflex that is characterized by 
 an involuntary contraction of the contractured taut band\, which can be el
 icited by a snapping palpation or penetration with a needle. The LTR has b
 een shown to be associated with alleviation and mitigation of spontaneous 
 electrical activity or motor endplate noise\; a reduction of the concentra
 tion of numerous nociceptive\, inflammatory\, and immune system related ch
 emicals and relaxation of the taut band.\n\nDeep DN of TrPs is associated 
 with reduced local and referred pain\, improved range of motion and decrea
 sed TrP irritability both locally and more remotely. DN normalizes the che
 mical milieu and pH of skeletal muscle and restores local circulation. Sup
 erficial DN is thought to activate mechanoreceptors coupled to slow conduc
 ting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and indirectly\, stimulate the anter
 ior cingular cortex. Superficial DN may also be mediated through stimulati
 on of A delta fibres\, or via stretching of fibroblasts in connective tiss
 ue. Superficial DN is associated with reduced local and referred pain and 
 improved range of motion.\n\nDN may be incorporated into a treatment plan 
 when myofascial TrPs are present\, which may lead to impairments in postur
 e\, pain and functional limitations. TrPs are sources of persistent periph
 eral nociceptive input and their inactivation is consistent with current p
 ain management insights DN also is indicated with restrictions in range of
  motion due to contractured muscle fibres or taut bands\, or other soft ti
 ssue restrictions\, such as fascial adhesions or scar tissue. TrPs have be
 en identified in numerous diagnoses ane can treat radiculopathies\, joint 
 dysfunction\, disk pathology\, tendinopathies\, cranio-mandibular dysfunct
 ion\, headaches and migraines\, tension-type headaches\, carpal tunnel syn
 drome\, computer-related or repetitive strain disorders\, whiplash associa
 ted injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pelvic pain\, post-herpetic neuralgia\, 
 complex regional pain syndromes\, sports injuries\, nocturnal cramps and o
 ther relatively uncommon disorders.\n\nIf you are a soft tissue therapist 
 and DN is in your scope of practice\, then is it time for you to learn thi
 s amazing new technique to help your patients and clients overcome their p
 ain and dysfunction.\n\nFor more information about Dry Needling\, click he
