The physiological basis f or DN depends upon the targeted tissue and treatment objectives. The treat ment of myofascial trigger points ( TrPs) has a different physiological ba sis than treatment of excessive muscle tension\, scar tissue\, fascia\, an d connective tissues. TrPs are hyperirritable spots within a taut band of contractured skeletal muscle fibres that produce local and/or referred pai n when stimulated.\n\nTrPs are divided into active and latent TrPs depende nt upon the degree of irritability. Active TrPs are spontaneously painful\ , while latent TrPs are only painful when stimulated. TrPs are physiologic al contractures\, characterized by local ischemia and hypoxia\, local and referred pain aod altered muscle activation patterns. TrPs activate muscle nociceptors and are peripheral sources of persistent nociceptive input\, thus contributing to the development of peripheral and central sensitizati on.\n\nDN can be divided into deep and superficial DN. Deep DN has been sh own to inactivate TrPs by eliciting local twitch responses (LTR) which are modulated by the central nervous system. A LTR is a spinal cord reflex th at is characterized 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 mit igation of spontaneous electrical activity or motor endplate noise\; a red uction of the concentration of numerous nociceptive\, inflammatory\, and i mmune system related chemicals and relaxation of the taut band.\n\nDeep DN of TrPs is associated with reeuced local and referred pain\, improved ran ge of motion and decreased TrP irritability both locally and more remotely . DN normalizes the chemical milieu and pH of skeletal muscle and restores local circulation. Superficial DN is thought to activate mechanoreceptors coupled to slow conducting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and indirectl y\, stimulate the anterior cingular cortex. Superficial DN may also be med iated through stimulation of A delta fibres\, or via stretching of fibrobl asts 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 TrPs are present\, which may lead t o impairments in posture\, pain and functional limitations. TrPs are sourc es of persistent peripheral nociceptive input and their inactivation is co nsistent with current pain management insights DN also is indicated with r estrictions in range of motion due to contractured muscle fibres or taut b ands\, or other soft tissue restrictions\, such as fascial adhesions or sc ar tissue. TrPs have been identified in numerous diagnoses and can treat r adiculopathies\, joint dysfunction\, disk pathology\, tendinopathies\, cra nio-mandibular dysfunction\, headaches and migraines\, tension-type headac hes\, carpal tunnel syndrome\, computer-related or repetitive strain disor ders\, whiplash associated injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pelvic pain\, pos t-herpetic neuralgia\, complex 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 ti me for you to learn this amazing new technique to help your patients and c lients overcome their pain and dysfunction.\n\nFor more information about Dry Needling\, click here.\n\n \;\nA Club Physio Dry Needling Courses registration includes:\n• All needle supplies needed for the course\; yo u will be asked to bring along some other equipment to the course\n• An  illustrated electronic course manual\n• Tea / coffee / snacks on each day\n• A signed certificate of attendance\n• One free premium listing of your practice on our DNI.net website\nPlease note:\nDry Needling cour ses are for healthcare therapists / professionals (clinical physiotherapis ts (PT's)\, chiropractors (DC's)\, osteopaths (DO's)\, podiatrists\, soft tissue and manual therapists\, kinesiologists\, doctors\, nurses\, medical specialists and acupuncturists) for whom dry needling is within your scop e of practice and you are legally permitted to needle in your registered c ountry / state. No minimum dry needling or previous acupuncture experience required but presumed anatomy\, advanced palpation skills and clinical ex pertise is expected due to the advanced nature and in depth structure of o ur DN courses. Professional indemnity insurance as per your professional b ody is also a pre-requisite.\nSome sports / rehab / massage therapists can apply subject to scope of practice with your professional organization\, theoretical and practical experience and having professional indemnity ins urance.\nIf you are not sure whether DN falls within your scope of practic e\, ask your professional organization or you can email us here. \n[/spoi ler]\n\n \;\n\n \;\n\n[spoiler title='How to book for this course?
