 ling?\nDry Needling (DN) is a skilled intervention that uses a thin filifo
 rm needle to penetrate the skin and stimulate underlying myofascial trigge
 r points\, muscular\, and connective tissues for the management of neuromu
 sculoskeletal pain and movement impairments.\nDN is used to treat dysfunct
 ions in skeletal muscle\, fascia and connective tissue and diminish persis
 tent peripheral nociceptive input and reduce or restore impairments of fun
 ction leading to improved activity and participation. The physiological ba
 sis for DN depends upon the targeted tissue and treatment objectives. The 
 treatment of myofascial trigger points ( TrPs) has a different physiologic
 al basis than treatment of excessive muscle tension\, scar tissue\, fascia
 \, and connective tissues. TrPs are hyperirritable spots within a taut ban
 d of contractured skeletal muscle fibres that produce local and/or referre
 d pain when stimulated.\n\nTrPs are divided into active and latent TrPs de
 pendent upon the degree of irritability. Active TrPs are spontaneously pai
 nful\, while latent TrPs are only painful when stimulated. TrPs are physio
 logical contractures\, characterized by local ischemia and hypoxia\, local
  and referred pain and altered muscle activation patterns. TrPs activate m
 uscle nociceptors and are peripheral sources of persistent nociceptive inp
 ut\, thus contributing to the development of peripheral and central sensit
 ization.\n\nDN can be divided into deep and superficial DN. Deep DN has be
 en shown to inactivate TrPs by eliciting local twitch responses (LTR) whic
 h are modulated by the central nervous system. A LTR is a spinal cord refl
 ex that is characterized by an involuntary contraction 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 associated with alleviation an
 d mitigation of spontaneous electrical activity or motor endplate noise\; 
 a reduction of the concentration of numerous nociceptive\, inflammatory\, 
 and immune system related chemicals and relaxation of the taut band.\n\nDe
 ep DN of TrPs is associated with reduced local and referred pain\, improve
 d range of motion and decreased TrP irritability both locally and more rem
 otely. DN normalizes the chemical milieu and pH of skeletal muscle and res
 tores local circulation. Suqerficial DN is thought to activate mechanorece
 ptors coupled to slow conducting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and indi
 rectly\, stimulate the anterior cingular cortex. Superficial DN may also b
 e mediated through stimulation of A delta fibres\, or via stretching of fi
 broblasts in connective tissue. Superficial DN is associated with reduced 
 local and referred pain and improved range of motion.\n\nDN may be incorpo
 rated into a treatment plan when myofascial TrPs are present\, which may l
 ead to impairments in posture\, pain and functional limitations. TrPs are 
 sources of persistent peripheral nociceptive input and their inactivation 
 is consistent with current pain management insights DN also is indicated w
 ith restrictions in range of motion due to contractured muscle fibres or t
 aut bands\, or other soft tissue restrictions\, such as fascial adhesions 
 or scar tissue. TrPs have been identified in numerous diagnoses and can tr
 eat radiculopathies\, joint dysfunction\, disk pathology\, tendinopathies\
 , cranio-mandibular dysfunction\, headaches and migraines\, tension-type h
 eadaches\, carpal tunnel syndrome\, computer-related or repetitive strain 
 disorders\, whiplash associated injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pelvic pain\
 , post-herpetic neuralgia\, complex regional pain syndromes\, sports injur
 ies\, nocturnal cramps 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 to learn this amazing new technique to help your patients 
 and clients overcome their pain and dysfunction.\n\nFor more information a

 tration includes:\n\n 	All practice needles supplied for the course\;\n 	A
 n illustrated electronic course manual (sent our weeks ahead of the course
  to help you best prepare)\;\n 	Tea\, coffee and snacks on each day\;\n 	C
 ertificate of attendance in printed or digital form (with CPD points depen
 ding on your areas approval / accreditation)\;\n 	Pathway to completing th
 e Dry Needling Level 2 course and certifying as a dry needling practitione
 r\;\n 	One free listing of your practice on our website.\n\nPlease note:\n
 Dry Needling courses are for healthcare therapists / professionals (clinic
 al physiotherapists (PT's)\, chiropractors (DC's)\, osteopaths (DO's)\, po
 diatrists\, soft tissue and manual therapists\, kinesiologists\, doctors\,
  nurses\, medical specialists and acupuncturists) for whom dry needling is
  within your scope of practice and you are legally permitted to needle in 
 your registered country / state. No minimum dry needling or previous acupu
 ncture experience required but presumed anatomy\, advaoced palpation skill
 s and clinical expertise is expected due to the advanced nature and in dep
 th structure of our DN courses. Professional indemnity insurance as per yo
 ur professional body is also a pre-requisite.\nSome sports / rehab / massa
 ge therapists can apply subject to scope of practice with your professiona
 l organization\, theoretical and practical experience and having professio
 nal indemnity insurance.\nIf you are not sure whether DN falls within your
  scope of practice\, ask your professional organization or you can email u
 s here. \n[/spoiler]\n\n[spoiler title='How to book for this course?']\nH
