The physiological basis for DN depends upon the targeted tissue an d treatment objectives. The treatment of myofascial trigger points ( TrPs) has a different physiological basis than treatment of excessive muscle te nsion\, scar tissue\, fascia\, and connective tissues. TrPs are hyperirrit able spots within a taut band of contractured skeletal muscle fibres that produce local and/or referred pain when stimulated.\n\nTrPs are divided in to active and latent TrPs dependent upon the degree of irritability. Activ e TrPs are spontaneously painful\, while latent TrPs are only painful when stimulated. TrPs are physiological contractures\, characterized by local ischemia and hypoxia\, local and referred pain and altered muscle activati on patterns. TrPs activate muscle nociceptors and are peripheral sources o f persistent nociceptive input\, thus contributing to the development of p eripheral and central sensitization.\n\nDN can be divided into deep and su perficial 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 con traction of the contractured taut band\, which can be elicited by a snappi ng palpation or penetration with a needle. The LTR has been shown to be as sociated with alleviation and mitigation of spontaneous electrical activit y or motor endplate noise\; a reduction of the concentration of numerous n ociceptive\, inflammatory\, and immune system related chemicals and relaxa tion of the taut band.\n\nDeep DN of TrPs is associated with reduced local and referred pain\, improved range of motion and decreased TrP irritabili ty both locally and more remotely. DN normalizes the chemical milieu and p H of skeletal muscle and restores local circulation. Suqerficial DN is tho ught to activate mechanoreceptors coupled to slow conducting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and indirectly\, stimulate the anterior cingular corte x. Superficial DN may also be mediated through stimulation of A delta fibr es\, or via stretching of fibroblasts in connective tissue. 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 Tr Ps are present\, which may lead to impairments in posture\, pain and funct ional limitations. TrPs are sources of persistent peripheral nociceptive i nput and their inactivation is consistent with current pain management ins ights DN also is indicated with restrictions in range of motion due to con tractured muscle fibres or taut bands\, or other soft tissue restrictions\ , such as fascial adhesions or scar tissue. TrPs have been identified in n umerous diagnoses and can treat radiculopathies\, joint dysfunction\, disk pathology\, tendinopathies\, cranio-mandibular dysfunction\, headaches an d migraines\, tension-type headaches\, carpal tunnel syndrome\, computer-r elated or repetitive strain disorders\, whiplash associated injury\, spina l dysfunction\, pelvic pain\, post-herpetic neuralgia\, complex regional p ain syndromes\, sports injuries\, nocturnal cramps and other relatively un common 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 tech nique to help your patients and clients overcome their pain and dysfunctio n.\n\nFor more information about Dry Needling\, click here.\n\nA Club Phys io Dry Needling Course registration includes:\n\n All practice needles su pplied for the course\;\n An illustrated electronic course manual (sent o ur weeks ahead of the course to help you best prepare)\;\n Tea\, coffee a nd snacks on each day\;\n Certificate of attendance in printed or digital form (with CPD points depending on your areas approval / accreditation)\; \n Pathway to completing the Dry Needling Level 2 course and certifying a s a dry needling practitioner\;\n One free listing of your practice on ou r website.\n\nPlease note:\nDry Needling courses are for healthcare therap ists / professionals (clinical physiotherapists (PT's)\, chiropractors (DC 's)\, osteopaths (DO's)\, podiatrists\, soft tissue and manual therapists\ , kinesiologists\, doctors\, nurses\, medical specialists and acupuncturis ts) for whom dry needling is within your scope of practice and you are leg ally permitted to needle in your registered country / state.
