The physiological basis for DN depends upon the targeted tissue and treatment objectives. The treatment of myofascial tri gger points ( TrPs) has a different physiological 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/or referred pain when stimulated.\n\n TrPs are divided into active and latent TrPs dependent upon the degree of irritability. Active TrPs are spontaneously painful\, while latent TrPs ar e only painful when stimulated. TrPs are physiological contractures\, char acterized by local ischemia and hypoxia\, local and referred pain and alte red muscle activation patterns. TrPs activate muscle nociceptors and are p eripheral sources of persistent nociceptive input\, thus contributing to t he development of peripheral and central sensitization.\n\nDN can be divid ed into deep and superficial DN. Deep DN has been shown to inactivate TrPs by eliciting local twitch responses (LTR) which are modulated by the cent ral nervous system. A LTR is a spinal cord reflex that is characterized by an involuntary contraction of the contractured taut band\, which can be e licited by a snapping palpation or penetration with a needle. The LTR has been shown to be associated with alleviation and mitigation of spontaneous electrical activity or motor endplate noise\; a reduction of the concentr ation of numerous nociceptive\, inflammatory\, and immune system related c hemicals and relaxation of the taut band.\n\nDeep DN of TrPs is associated with reduced local and referred pain\, improved range of motion and decre ased TrP irritability both locally and more remotely. DN normalizes the ch emical milieu and pH of skeletal muscle and restores local circulation. Su perficial DN is thought to activate mechanoreceptors coupled to slow condu cting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and indirectly\, stimulate the ante rior cingular cortex. Superficial DN may also be mediated through stimulat ion of A delta fibres\, or via stretching of fibroblasts in connective tis sue. 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 postu re\, pain and functional limitations. TrPs are sources of persistent perip heral nociceptive input and their inactivation is consistent with current pain management insights DN also is indicated with restrictions in range o f motion due to contractured muscle fibres or taut bands\, or other soft t issue restrictions\, such as fascial adhesions or scar tissue. TrPs have b een identified in numerous diagnoses and can treat radiculopathies\, joint dysfunction\, disk pathology\, tendinopathies\, cranio-mandibular dysfunc tion\, headaches and migraines\, tension-type headaches\, carpal tunnel sy ndrome\, computer-related or repetitive strain disorders\, whiplash associ ated injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pelvic pain\, post-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 time for you to learn th is amazing new technique to help your patients and clients overcome their pain and dysfunction.\n\nFor more information about Dry Needling\, click h ere.\n\n \;\nA Club Physio Dry Needling Courses registration includes: \n• All needle supplies needed for the course\; you will be asked to bri ng along some other equipment to the course\n• An illustrated electron ic course manual\n• Tea / coffee / snacks on each day\n• A signed cer tificate of attendance\n• One free premium listing of your practice on o ur DNI.net website\nPlease note:\nDry Needling courses are for healthcare therapists / professionals (clinical physiotherapists (PT's)\, chiropract ors (DC's)\, osteopaths (DO's)\, podiatrists\, soft tissue and manual ther apists\, kinesiologists\, doctors\, nurses\, medical specialists and acupu ncturists) for whom dry needling is within your scope of practice and you are legally permitted to needle in your registered country / state. No min imum dry needling or previous acupuncture experience required but presumed anatomy\, advanced palpation skills and clinical expertise is expected du e to the advanced nature and in depth structure of our DN courses. Profess ional indemnity insurance as per your professional body is also a pre-requ isite.\nSome sports / rehab / massage therapists can apply subject to scop e of practice with your professional organization\, theoretical and practi cal experience and having professional indemnity insurance.\nIf you are no t sure whether DN falls within your scope of practice\, ask your professio nal organization or you can email us here. \n[/spoiler]\n\n[spoiler title ='How to book for this course?']\nHow To Book This Course:\n• Step 1: Cr eate an account\; register your details here or click on the 'My Profile' button on the top menu: we need your details in order to reserve your seat and email you the preliminary materials for the course - ps\; please note that registering your details does not book you onto the course - you nee d to follow step 2 below.\n\n• Step 2: Book your place\; Once you have r egistered your details\, come back to this DN webpage to submit your booki ng below and choose your payment method\; to book\, click on the Submit bu tton below.\n\n• Step 3: Choose and make your payment method below\; Pay ment by Bank Transfer: If you wish to pay via a bank transfer\, simply fol low the payment details on the proforma invoice that has been emailed to y ou now that you have made your booking.
