The physiolog ical basis for DN depends upon the targeted tissue and tseatment objective s. The treatment of myofascial trigger points ( TrPs) has a different phys iological basis than treatment of excessive muscle tension\, scar tissue\, fascia\, and connective tissues. TrPs are hyperirritable spots within a t aut band of contractured skeletal 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 spontaneou sly 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 activation patterns. TrPs act ivate muscle nociceptoss and are peripheral sources of persistent nocicept ive input\, thus contributing to the development of peripheral and central sensitization.\n\nDN can be divided into deep and superficial DN. Deep DN has been shown to inactivate TrPs by eliciting local twitch responses (LT R) which are modulated by the central nervous system. A LTR is a spinal co rd reflex that is characterized by an involuntary contraction of the contr actured taut band\, which can be elicited by a snapping palpation or penet ration with a needle. The LTR has been shown to be associated with allevia tion and mitigation of spontaneous electrical activity or motor endplate n oise\; a reduction of the concentration of numerous nociceptive\, inflamma tory\, and immune system related chemicals and relaxation of the taut band .\n\nDeep DN of TrPs is associated with reduced local and referred pain\, improved range of motion and eecreased TrP irritabiliuy both locally and m ore remotely. DN normalizes the chemical milieu and pH of skeletal muscle and restores local circulation. Superficial DN is thought to activate mech anoreceptors coupled to slow conducting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, a nd indirectly\, stimulate the anterior cingular cortex. Superficial DN may also be mediated through stimulation of A delta fibres\, or via stretchin g of fibroblasts in connective tissue. Superficial DN is associated with r educed local and referred pain and improved range of motion.\n\nDN may be incorporated into a treatment plan when myofascial TrPs are present\, whic h may lead to impairments in posture\, pain and functional limitations. Tr Ps are sources of persistent peripheral nociceptive input and their inacti vation is consistent with current pain management insights DN also is indi cated with restrictions in range of motion due to contractured muscle fibr es or taut bands\, or other soft tissue restrictions\, such as fascial adh esions or scar tissue. TrPs have been identified in numerous diagnoses and can treat radiculopathies\, joint dysfunction\, disk pathology\, tendinop athies\, cranio-mandibular dysfunction\, headaches and migraines\, tension -type headaches\, carpal tunnel syndrome\, computer-related or repetitive strain disorders\, whiplash associated injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pelvi c pain\, post-herpetic neuralgia\, complex regional pain syndromes\, sport s injuries\, nocturnal cramps and other relatively uncommon disorders.\n\n If you are a soft tissue therapist and DN is in your scope of practice\, t hen is it time for you to learn this amazing new technique to help your pa tients and clients overcome their pain and dysfunction.\n\nFor more inform ation about Dry Needling\, click here.\n\n \;\nA Club Physio Dry Needl ing Courses registration includes:\n• All needle supplies needed for the course\; you will be asked to bring along some other equipment to the cou rse\n• An illustrated electronic course manual\n• Tea / coffee / sn acks on each day\n• A signed certificate of attendance\n• One free pre mium listing of your practice on our DNI.net website\nPlease note:\nDry N eedling courses are for healthcare therapists / professionals (clinical ph ysiotherapists (PT's)\, chiropractors (DC's)\, osteopaths (DO's)\, podiatr ists\, soft tissue and manual therapists\, kinesiologists\, doctors\, nurs es\, medical specialists and acupuncturists) for whom dry needling is with in your scope of practice and you are legally permitted to needle in your registered country / state. No minimum dry needling or previous acupunctur e experience required but presumed anatomy\, advanced palpation skills and clinical expertise is expected due to the advanced nature and in depth st ructure of our DN courses. Professional indemnity insurance as per your pr ofessional body is also a pre-requisite.\nSome sports / rehab / massage th erapists can apply subject to scope of practice with your professional org anization\, theoretical and practical experience and having professional i ndemnity insurance.\nIf you are not sure whether DN falls within your scop e of practice\, ask your professional organization or you can email us her e. \n[/spoiler]\n\n[spoiler title='How to book for this course?']\nHow To Book This Course:\n• Step 1: Create an account\; register your details here or click on the 'My Profile' button on the top menu: we need your det ails 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 need to follow step 2 below.\n\n• Step 2: Book your place\; Once you have registered your details\, come back to th is DN webpage to submit your booking below and choose your payment method\ ; to book\, click on the Submit button below.\n\n• Step 3: Choose and ma ke your payment method below\; Payment by Bank Transfer: If you wish to pa y via a bank transfer\, simply follow the payment details on the proforma invoice that has been emailed to you now that you have made your booking.
