The physiol ogical basis for DN depends upon the targeted tissue and treatment objecti ves. The treatment of myofascial trigger points ( TrPs) has a different ph ysiological basis than treatment of excessive muscle tension\, scar tissue \, fascia\, and connective tissues. TrPs are hyperirritable spots within a taut band of contractured skeletal muscle fibres that produce local and/o r referred pain when stimulated.\n\nTrPs are divided into active and laten t TrPs dependent upon the degree of irritability. Active TrPs are spontane ously painful\, while latent TrPs are only painful when stimulated. TrPs a re physiological contractures\, characterized by local ischemia and hypoxi a\, local and referred pain and altered muscle activation patterns. TrPs a ctivate muscle nociceptors and are peripheral sources of persistent nocice ptive input\, thus contributing to the development of peripheral and centr al sensitization.\n\nDN can be divided into deep and superficial DN. Deep DN has been shown to inactivate TrPs by eliciting local twitch responses ( LTR) which are modulated by the central nervous system. A LTR is a spinal cord reflex that is characterized by an involuntary contraction of the con tractured taut band\, which can be elicited by a snapping palpation or pen etration with a needle. The LTR has been shown to be associated with allev iation and mitigation of spontaneous electrical activity or motor endplate noise\; a reduction of the concentration of numerous nociceptive\, inflam matory\, and immune system related chemicals and relaxation of the taut ba nd.\n\nDeep DN of TrPs is associated with reduced local and referred pain\ , improved range of motion and decreased TrP irritability both locally and more remotely. DN normalizes the chemical milieu and pH of skeletal muscl e and restores local circulation. Superficial DN is thought to activate me chanoreceptors coupled to slow conducting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and indirectly\, stimulate the anterior cingular cortex. Superficial DN m ay also be mediated through stimulation of A delta fibres\, or via stretch ing of fibroblasts in connective tissue. Superficial DN is associated with reduced local and referred pain and improved range of motion.\n\nDN may b e incorporated into a treatment plan when myofascial TrPs are present\, wh ich may lead to impairments in posture\, pain and functional limitations. TrPs are sources of persistent peripheral nociceptive input and their inac tivation is consistent with current pain management insights DN also is in dicated with restrictions in range of motion due to contractured muscle fi bres or taut bands\, or other soft tissue restrictions\, such as fascial a dhesions or scar tissue. TrPs have been identified in numerous diagnoses a nd can treat radiculopathies\, joint dysfunction\, disk pathology\, tendin opathies\, cranio-mandibular dysfunction\, headaches and migraines\, tensi on-type headaches\, carpal tunnel syndrome\, computer-related or repetitiv e strain disorders\, whiplash associated injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pel vic pain\, post-herpetic neuralgia\, complex regional pain syndromes\, spo rts injuries\, nocturnal cramps and other 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 this amazing new technique to help your patients and clients overcome their pain and dysfunction.\n\nFor more info rmation about Dry Needling\, click here.\nA Club Physio Dry Needling Cours es registration includes:\n• All supplies needed for the course as needl es\, tissues\n• Coloured and illustrated course manual\;\n• Tea\, Coff ee and snacks on each day\;\n• Signed certificate of attendance\;\n• O ne free premium listing of your practice on our website\nPlease note:\nDry Needling courses are for healthcare therapists / professionals (clinical physiotherapists (PT's)\, chiropractors (DC's)\, osteopaths (DO's)\, podia trists\, soft tissue and manual therapists\, kinesiologists\, doctors\, nu rses\, medical specialists and acupuncturists) for whom dry needling is wi thin your scope of practice and you are legally permitted to needle in you r registered country / state. No minimum dry needling or previous acupunct ure experience required but presumed anatomy\, advanced palpation skills a nd clinical expertise is expected due to the advanced nature and in depth structure of our DN courses. Professional indemnity insurance as per your professional body is also a pre-requisite.\nSome sports / rehab / massage therapists can apply subject to scope of practice with your professional o rganization\, theoretical and practical experience and having professional indemnity insurance.\nIf you are not sure whether DN falls within your sc ope of practice\, ask your professional organization or you can email us h ere. \n[/spoiler]\n\n[spoiler title='How to book for this course?']\nHow To Book This Course:\n• Step 1: Create an account\; register your detail s here or click on the 'My Profile' button on the top menu: we need your d etails in order to reserve your seat and email you the preliminary materia ls for the course - ps\; please note that registering your details does no t book you onto the course - you need to follow step 2 below.\n\n• Step 2: Book your place\; Once you have registered your details\, come back to this DN webpage to submit your booking below and choose your payment metho d\; to book\, click on the Submit button below.\n\n• Step 3: Choose and make your payment method below\; Payment by Bank Transfer: If you wish to pay via a bank transfer\, simply follow the payment details on the proform a invoice that has been emailed to you now that you have made your booking .
