The physiological basis for DN depends upon the targ eted tissue and treatment objectives. The treatment of myofascial trigger points ( TrPs) has a different physiological basis than treatment of exces sive muscle tension\, scar tissue\, fascia\, and connective tissues. TrPs are hyperirritable spots within a taut band of contractured skeletal muscl e fibres that produce local and/or referred pain when stimulated.\n\nTrPs are divided into active and latent TrPs dependent upon the degree of irrit ability. Active TrPs are spontaneously painful\, while latent TrPs are onl y painful when stimulated. TrPs are physiological contractures\, character ized by local ischemia and hypoxia\, local and referred pain and altered m uscle activation patterns. TrPs activate muscle nociceptors and are periph eral sources of persistent nociceptive input\, thus contributing to the de velopment of peripheral and central sensitization.\n\nDN can be divided in to deep and superficial DN. Deep DN has been shown to inactivate TrPs by e liciting local twitch responses (LTR) which are modulated by the central n ervous system. A LTR is a spinal cord reflex that is characterized by an i nvoluntary contraction of the contractured taut band\, which can be elicit ed by a snapping palpation or penetration with a needle. The LTR has been shown to be associated with alleviation and mitigation of spontaneous elec trical activity or motor endplate noise\; a reduction of the concentration of numerous nociceptive\, inflammatory\, and immune system related chemic als and relaxation of the taut band.\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 chemica l milieu and pH of skeletal muscle and restores local circulation. Superfi cial DN is thought to activate mechanoreceptors coupled to slow conducting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and indirectly\, stimulate the anterior cingular cortex. Superficial DN may also be mediated through stimulation o f A delta fibres\, or via stretching of fibroblasts in connective tissue. Superficial DN is associated with reduced local and referred pain and impr oved range of motion.\n\nDN may be incorporated into a treatment plan when myofascial TrPs are present\, which may lead to impairments in posture\, pain and functional limitations. TrPs are sources of persistent peripheral nociceptive input and their inactivation is consistent with current pain management insights DN also is indicated with restrictions in range of mot ion due to contractured muscle fibres or taut bands\, or other soft tissue restrictions\, such as fascial adhesions or scar tissue. TrPs have been i dentified in numerous diagnoses ane can treat radiculopathies\, joint dysf unction\, disk pathology\, tendinopathies\, cranio-mandibular dysfunction\ , headaches and migraines\, tension-type headaches\, carpal tunnel syndrom e\, computer-related or repetitive strain disorders\, whiplash associated injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pelvic pain\, post-herpetic neuralgia\, comp lex regional pain syndromes\, sports 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 am azing new technique to help your patients and clients overcome 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 pract ice needles supplied for the course\;\n An illustrated electronic course manual (sent our weeks ahead of the course to help you best prepare)\;\n Tea\, coffee and snacks on each day\;\n Certificate of attendance in prin ted or digital form (with CPD points depending on your areas approval / ac creditation)\;\n Pathway to completing the Dry Needling Level 2 course an d certifying as a dry needling practitioner\;\n One free listing of your practice on our website.\n\nPlease note:\nDry Needling courses are for hea lthcare therapists / professionals (clinical physiotherapists (PT's)\, chi ropractors (DC's)\, osteopaths (DO's)\, podiatrists\, soft tissue and manu al therapists\, kinesiologists\, doctors\, nurses\, medical specialists an d acupuncturists) for whom dry needling is within your scope of practice a nd you are legally permitted to needle in your registered country / state.
