The physiological basis for DN d epends upon the targeted tissue and tseatment objectives. The treatment of myofascial trigger points ( TrPs) has a different physiological basis tha n treatment of excessive muscle tension\, scar tissue\, fascia\, and conne ctive tissues. TrPs are hyperirritable spots within a taut band of contrac tured 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 spontaneously painful\, while latent TrPs are only painful when stimulated. TrPs are physiological cont ractures\, characterized by local ischemia and hypoxia\, local and referre d pain and altered muscle activation patterns. TrPs activate muscle nocice ptoss and are peripheral sources of persistent nociceptive input\, thus co ntributing to the development of peripheral and central sensitization.\n\n DN can be divided into deep and superficial DN. Deep DN has been shown to inactivate TrPs by eliciting local twitch responses (LTR) which are modula ted by the central nervous system. A LTR is a spinal cord reflex that is c haracterized by an involuntary contraction of the contractured taut band\, which can be elicited by a snapping palpation or penetration with a needl e. The LTR has been shown to be associated with alleviation and mitigation of spontaneous electrical activity or motor endplate noise\; a reduction of the concentration of numerous nociceptive\, inflammatory\, and immune s ystem related chemicals and relaxation of the taut band.\n\nDeep DN of TrP s is associated with reduced local and referred pain\, improved range of m otion and eecreased TrP irritabiliuy both locally and more remotely. DN no rmalizes the chemical milieu and pH of skeletal muscle and restores local circulation. Superficial DN is thought to activate mechanoreceptors couple d to slow conducting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and indirectly\, sti mulate the anterior cingular cortex. Superficial DN may also be mediated t hrough stimulation of A delta fibres\, or via stretching of fibroblasts in connective tissue. Superficial DN is associated with reduced local and re ferred pain and improved range of motion.\n\nDN may be incorporated into a treatment plan when myofascial TrPs are present\, which may lead to impai rments in posture\, pain and functional limitations. TrPs are sources of p ersistent peripheral nociceptive input and their inactivation is consisten t with current pain management insights DN also is indicated with restrict ions in range of motion due to contractured muscle fibres or taut bands\, or other soft tissue restrictions\, such as fascial adhesions or scar tiss ue. TrPs have been identified in numerous diagnoses and can treat radiculo pathies\, joint dysfunction\, disk pathology\, tendinopathies\, cranio-man dibular dysfunction\, headaches and migraines\, tension-type headaches\, c arpal tunnel syndrome\, computer-related or repetitive strain disorders\, whiplash associated injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pelvic pain\, post-herpe tic neuralgia\, complex regional pain syndromes\, sports injuries\, noctur nal cramps and other relatively uncommon disorders.\n\nIf you are a soft t issue therapist and 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 pain and dysfunction.\n\nFor more information about Dry Nee dling\, click here.\n\n \;\nA Club Physio Dry Needling Courses registr ation includes:\n• All needle supplies needed for the course\; you will be asked to bring along some other equipment to the course\n• An illus trated electronic course manual\n• Tea / coffee / snacks on each day\n • A signed certificate of attendance\n• One free premium listing of yo ur practice on our DNI.net website\nPlease note:\nDry Needling courses ar e for healthcare therapists / professionals (clinical physiotherapists (PT 's)\, chiropractors (DC's)\, osteopaths (DO's)\, podiatrists\, soft tissue and manual therapists\, kinesiologists\, doctors\, nurses\, medical speci alists and acupuncturists) for whom dry needling is within your scope of p ractice and you are legally permitted to needle in your registered country / state. No minimum dry needling or previous acupuncture experience requi red but presumed anatomy\, advanced palpation skills and clinical expertis e is expected due to the advanced nature and in depth structure of our DN courses. Professional indemnity insurance as per your professional body is also a pre-requisite.\nSome sports / rehab / massage therapists can apply subject to scope of practice with your professional organization\, theore tical and practical experience and having professional indemnity insurance .\nIf you are not sure whether DN falls within your scope of practice\, as k your professional organization or you can email us here. \n[/spoiler]\n \n \;\n\n \;\n\n[spoiler title='How to book for this course?']\nHo w To Book This Course:\n• Step 1: Create an account\; register your deta ils 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 mater ials 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• Ste p 2: Book your place\; Once you have registered your details\, come back t o this DN webpage to submit your booking below and choose your payment met hod\; to book\, click on the Submit button below.\n\n• Step 3: Choose an d make your payment method below\; Payment by Bank Transfer: If you wish t o pay via a bank transfer\, simply follow the payment details on the profo rma invoice that has been emailed to you now that you have made your booki ng.
