The physiological basis for DN depends upon the targeted tissue and tseatment objectives. The treatment of myofascial trigger points ( TrPs) h as a different physiological basis than treatment of excessive muscle tens ion\, scar tissue\, fascia\, and connective tissues. TrPs are hyperirritab le spots within a taut band of contractured skeletal muscle fibres that pr oduce 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 s timulated. TrPs are physiological contractures\, characterized by local is chemia and hypoxia\, local and referred pain and altered muscle activation patterns. TrPs activate muscle nociceptoss and are peripheral sources of persistent nociceptive input\, thus contributing to the development of per ipheral and central sensitization.\n\nDN can be divided into deep and supe rficial DN. Deep DN has been shown to inactivate TrPs by eliciting local t witch responses (LTR) which are modulated by the central nervous system. A LTR is a spinal cord reflex that is characterized by an involuntary contr action 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 asso ciated with alleviation and mitigation of spontaneous electrical activity or motor endplate noise\; a reduction of the concentration of numerous noc iceptive\, inflammatory\, and immune system related chemicals and relaxati on of the taut band.\n\nDeep DN of TrPs is associated with reduced local a nd referred pain\, improved range of motion and eecreased TrP irritabiliuy both locally and more remotely. DN normalizes the chemical milieu and pH of skeletal muscle and restores local circulation. Superficial DN is thoug ht to activate mechanoreceptors coupled to slow conducting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and indirectly\, stimulate the anterior cingular cortex. Superficial DN may also be mediated through stimulation of A delta fibres \, or via stretching of fibroblasts in connective tissue. Superficial DN i s associated with reduced local and referred pain and improved range of mo tion.\n\nDN may be incorporated into a treatment plan when myofascial TrPs are present\, which may lead to impairments in posture\, pain and functio nal limitations. TrPs are sources of persistent peripheral nociceptive inp ut and their inactivation is consistent with current pain management insig hts DN also is indicated with restrictions in range of motion due to contr actured muscle fibres or taut bands\, or other soft tissue restrictions\, such as fascial adhesions or scar tissue. TrPs have been identified in num erous diagnoses and can treat radiculopathies\, joint dysfunction\, disk p athology\, tendinopathies\, cranio-mandibular dysfunction\, headaches and migraines\, tension-type headaches\, carpal tunnel syndrome\, computer-rel ated or repetitive strain disorders\, whiplash associated injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pelvic pain\, post-herpetic neuralgia\, complex regional pai n syndromes\, sports injuries\, nocturnal cramps and other relatively unco mmon disorders.\n\nIf you are a soft tissue therapist and DN is in your sc ope of practice\, then is it time for you to learn this amazing new techni que to help your patients and clients overcome their pain and dysfunction. \n\nFor more information about Dry Needling\, click here.\n\n \;\nA Cl ub Physio Dry Needling Courses registration includes:\n• All needle supp lies needed for the course\; you will be asked to bring along some other e quipment to the course\n• An illustrated electronic course manual\n• Tea / coffee / snacks on each day\n• A signed certificate of attendanc e\n• One free premium listing of your practice on our DNI.net website\n Please note:\nDry Needling courses are for healthcare therapists / profess ionals (clinical physiotherapists (PT's)\, chiropractors (DC's)\, osteopat hs (DO's)\, podiatrists\, soft tissue and manual therapists\, kinesiologis ts\, doctors\, nurses\, medical specialists and acupuncturists) for whom d ry needling is within your scope of practice and you are legally permitted to needle in your registered country / state.
