The physiological basis for DN depend s upon the targeted tissue and treatment objectives. The treatment of myof ascial trigger points ( TrPs) has a different physiological basis than tre atment 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 stimu lated.\n\nTrPs are divided into active and latent TrPs dependent upon the degree of irritability. Active TrPs are spontaneously painful\, while late nt TrPs are only painful when stimulated. TrPs are physiological contractu res\, characterized by local ischemia and hypoxia\, local and referred pai n and altered muscle activation patterns. TrPs activate muscle nociceptors and are peripheral sources of persistent nociceptive input\, thus contrib uting to the development of peripheral and central sensitization.\n\nDN ca n be divided into deep and superficial DN. Deep DN has been shown to inact ivate TrPs by eliciting local twitch responses (LTR) which are modulated b y the central nervous system. A LTR is a spinal cord reflex that is charac terized by an involuntary contraction of the contractured taut band\, whic h can be elicited by a snapping palpation or penetration with a needle. Th e LTR has been shown to be associated with alleviation and mitigation of s pontaneous electrical activity or motor endplate noise\; a reduction of th e concentration of numerous nociceptive\, inflammatory\, 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 decreased TrP irritability both locally and more remotely. DN normali zes the chemical milieu and pH of skeletal muscle and restores local circu lation. Superficial DN is thought to activate mechanoreceptors coupled to slow conducting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and indirectly\, stimulat e the anterior cingular cortex. Superficial DN may also be mediated throug h stimulation of A delta fibres\, or via stretching of fibroblasts in conn ective tissue. Superficial DN is associated with reduced local and referre d pain and improved range of motion.\n\nDN may be incorporated into a trea tment plan when myofascial TrPs are present\, which may lead to impairment s in posture\, pain and functional limitations. TrPs are sources of persis tent peripheral nociceptive input and their inactivation is consistent wit h current pain management insights DN also is indicated with restrictions in range of motion due to contractured muscle fibres or taut bands\, or ot her soft tissue restrictions\, such as fascial adhesions or scar tissue. T rPs have been identified in numerous diagnoses and can treat radiculopathi es\, joint dysfunction\, disk pathology\, tendinopathies\, cranio-mandibul ar dysfunction\, headaches and migraines\, tension-type headaches\, carpal tunnel syndrome\, computer-related or repetitive strain disorders\, whipl ash associated injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pelvic pain\, post-herpetic n euralgia\, complex regional pain syndromes\, sports injuries\, nocturnal c ramps 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 t o learn this amazing new technique to help your patients and clients overc ome 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\; you will be as ked to bring along some other equipment to the course\n• An illustrate d electronic course manual\n• Tea / coffee / snacks on each day\n• A signed certificate of attendance\n• One free premium listing of your pra ctice on our DNI.net website\nPlease note:\nDry Needling courses are for healthcare therapists / professionals (clinical physiotherapists (PT's)\, chiropractors (DC's)\, osteopaths (DO's)\, podiatrists\, soft tissue and m anual therapists\, kinesiologists\, doctors\, nurses\, medical specialists and acupuncturists) for whom dry needling is within your scope of practic e and you are legally permitted to needle in your registered country / sta te.
