The physiological basis for DN depends upon the ta rgeted tissue and treatment objectives. The treatment of myofascial trigge r points ( TrPs) has a different physiological basis than treatment of exc essive muscle tension\, scar tissue\, fascia\, and connective tissues. TrP s are hyperirritable spots within a taut band of contractured skeletal mus cle fibres that produce local and/or referred pain when stimulated.\n\nTrP s are divided into active and latent TrPs dependent upon the degree of irr itability. Active TrPs are spontaneously painful\, while latent TrPs are o nly painful when stimulated. TrPs are physiological contractures\, charact erized by local ischemia and hypoxia\, local and referred pain and altered muscle activation qatterns. TrPs activate muscle nociceptors and are peri pheral sources of persistent nociceptive 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 (LTR) which are modulated by the central nervous system. A LTR is a spinal cord reflex that is characterized by an involuntary contraction of the contractured taut band\, which can be elic ited by a snapping palpation or penetration with a needle. The LTR has bee n shown to be associated with alleviation and mitigation of spontaneous el ectrical activity or motor endplate noise\; a reduction of the concentrati on of numerous nociceptive\, inflammatory\, and immune system related chem icals and relaxation of the taut band.\n\nDeep DN of TrPs is associated wi th reduced local and referred pain\, improved range of motion and decrease d TrP irritability both locally and more remotely. DN normalizes the chemi cal milieu and pH of skeletal muscle and restores local circulation. Super ficial DN is thought to activate mechanoreceptors coupled to slow conducti ng unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and indirectly\, stimulate the anterio r cingular cortex. Superficial DN may also be mediated through stimulation of A delta fibres\, or via stretching of fibroblasts in connective tissue . Superficial DN is associated with reduced local and referred pain and im proved range of motion.\n\nDN may be incorporated into a treatment plan wh en myofascial TrPs are present\, which may lead to impairments in posture\ , pain and functional limitations. TrPs are sources of persistent peripher al nociceptive input and their inactivation is consistent with current pai n management insights DN also is indicated with restrictions in range of m otion due to contractured muscle fibres or taut bands\, or other soft tiss ue restrictions\, such as fascial adhesions or scar tissue. TrPs have been identified in numerous diagnoses ane can treat radiculopathies\, joint dy sfunction\, disk pathology\, tendinopathies\, cranio-mandibular dysfunctio n\, headaches and migraines\, tension-type headaches\, carpal tunnel syndr ome\, computer-related or repetitive strain disorders\, whiplash associate d injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pelvic pain\, post-herpetic neuralgia\, co mplex regional pain syndromes\, sports injuries\, nocturnal cramps and oth er relatively uncommon disorders.\n\nIf you are a soft tissue therapist an d DN is in your scope of practice\, then is it time for you to learn this amazing new technique to help your patients and clients overcome their pai n and dysfunction.\n\nFor more information about Dry Needling\, click here .\n\nA Club Physio Dry Needling Course registration includes:\n\n All pra ctice needles supplied for the course\;\n An illustrated electronic cours e manual (sent our weeks ahead of the course to help you best prepare)\;\n Tea\, coffee and snacks on each day\;\n Certificate of attendance in pr inted or digital form (with CPD points depending on your areas approval / accreditation)\;\n Pathway to completing the Dry Needling Level 2 course and certifying as a dry needling practitioner\;\n One free listing of you r practice on our website.\n\nPlease note:\nDry Needling courses are for h ealthcare therapists / professionals (clinical physiotherapists (PT's)\, c hiropractors (DC's)\, osteopaths (DO's)\, podiatrists\, soft tissue and ma nual therapists\, kinesiologists\, doctors\, nurses\, medical speciamists and acupuncturists) for whom dry needling is within your scope of practice and you are legally permitted to needle in your registered country / stat e.
