The physiological basis for DN depends upon the targeted tissue and treatment objectives. The treatment of myofascial trigger points ( TrPs) has a different physiological basis than treatment of excessive muscle tension\, scar tissue\, fascia\, and connective tissu es. TrPs are hyperirritable spots within a taut band of contractured skele tal muscle fibres that produce local and/or referred pain when stimulated. \n\nTrPs are divided into active and latent TrPs dependent upon the degree of irritability. Active TrPs are spontaneously painful\, while latent TrP s are only painful when stimulated. TrPs are physiological contractures\, characterized by local ischemia and hypoxia\, local and referred pain and altered muscle activation patterns. TrPs activate muscle nociceptors and a re peripheral sources of persistent nociceptive input\, thus contributing to the development of peripheral and central sensitization.\n\nDN can be d ivided 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 characterize d 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 mitigation of spontan eous electrical activity or motor endplate noise\; a reduction of the conc entration of numerous nociceptive\, inflammatory\, and immune system relat ed chemicals and relaxation of the taut band.\n\nDeep DN of TrPs is associ ated with reduced local and referred pain\, improved range of motion and d ecreased TrP irritability both locally and more remotely. DN normalizes th e chemical milieu and pH of skeletal muscle and restores local circulation . Superficial DN is thought to activate mechanoreceptors coupled to slow c onducting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and indirectly\, stimulate the anterior cingular cortex. Superficial DN may also be mediated through stim ulation of A delta fibres\, 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 TrPs are present\, which may lead to impairments in p osture\, pain and functional limitations. TrPs are sources of persistent p eripheral nociceptive input and their inactivation is consistent with curr ent pain management insights DN also is indicated with restrictions in ran ge of motion due to contractured muscle fibres or taut bands\, or other so ft tissue restrictions\, such as fascial adhesions or scar tissue. TrPs ha ve been identified in numerous diagnoses and can treat radiculopathies\, j oint dysfunction\, disk pathology\, tendinopathies\, cranio-mandibular dys function\, headaches and migraines\, tension-type headaches\, carpal tunne l syndrome\, computer-related or repetitive strain disorders\, whiplash as sociated injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pelvic pain\, post-herpetic neuralg ia\, complex regional pain syndromes\, sports injuries\, nocturnal cramps and other relatively uncommon disorders.\n\nIf you are a soft tissue thera pist and DN is in your scope of practice\, then is it time for you to lear n this amazing new technique to help your patients and clients overcome th eir pain and dysfunction.\n\nFor more information about Dry Needling\, cli ck here.\nA Club Physio Dry Needling Courses registration includes:\n• A ll supplies needed for the course as needles\, tissues\n• Coloured and i llustrated course manual\n• Tea and Coffee on each day\n• Certificate of attendance in a digital form\n• One free premium listing of your prac tice on our 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.
