Its a refreshing course\, able to concentrate better coz its only 4 hours per day and learning from your comfort\, saving on trave l and accommodation and reasonable to enroll . Its informative\, brushing up on all the anatomy and theory aspects of the DN and interactive being a ble to communicate and ask questions. I will definitely recommend it to ev eryone who wants to do DN or top up their skills - Martha \n\nI had an exc ellent experience with this DN online course. Craig has great teaching ski lls to pass on Knowledge and always kind to answer any question. Very nice to get the video recording and pdf's as the materials to study with. I wi sh we could have received the pdf's in advance to help during the class ti me. Thank you for this opportunity at these quarentine times! :) Priscilla \n\nDRY NEEDLING FOR THE MAIN MUSCLES - ONLINE REVIEW COURSE\; MODULES 1-4 via zoom live streaming -WILL BE DIVIDED UP INTO 4 REVIEW MODULES WITH 1 MODULE BEING PRESENTED ON EACH DAY - SIGN UP FOR A SINGLE MODULE OR MULTI PLE MODULES - Course times for each day\; 5PM - 8PM South Africa times (3h rs max each module)\; please check your own local times.\nTAKE THIS STAY A T HOME OPPORTUNITY DURING THE CORONA VIRUS PANDEMIC TO UPSKILL OR RENEW YO UR DRY NEEDLING TECHNIQUES FOR THE SPINE\, UPPER AND LOWER QUARTER AND THE PELVIS…. \n[/spoiler]\n\n[spoiler title='Course material']\nWhy Dry Nee dling?\nDry Needling (DN) is a skilled intervention that uses a thin filif orm needle to penetrate the skin and stimulate underlying myofascial trigg er points\, muscular\, and connective tissues for the management of neurom usculoskeletal pain and movement impairments.\nDN is used to treat dysfunc tions in skeletal muscle\, fascia and connective tissue and diminish persi stent peripheral nociceptive input and reduce or restore impairments of fu nction leading to improved activity and participation. The physiological b asis for DN depends upon the targeted tissue and treatment objectives. The treatment of myofascial trigger points ( TrPs) has a different physiologi cal basis than treatment of excessive muscle tension\, scar tissue\, fasci a\, and connective tissues. TrPs are hyperirritable spots within a taut ba nd of contractured skeletal muscle fibres that produce local and/or referr ed pain when stimulated.\n\nTrPs are divided into active and latent TrPs d ependent upon the degree of irritability. Active TrPs are spontaneously pa inful\, while latent TrPs are only painful when stimulated. TrPs are physi ological contractures\, characterized by local ischemia and hypoxia\, loca l and referred pain and altered muscle activation patterns. TrPs activate muscle nociceptors and are peripheral sources of persistent nociceptive in put\, thus contributing to the development of peripheral and central sensi tization.\n\nDN can be divided into deep and superficial DN. Deep DN has b een shown to inactivate TrPs by eliciting local twitch responses (LTR) whi ch are modulated by the central nervous system. A LTR is a spinal cord ref lex that is characterized by an involuntary contraction of the contracture d 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 a nd 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\nD eep DN of TrPs is associated with reduced local and referred pain\, improv ed range of motion and decreased TrP irritability both locally and more re motely. DN normalizes the chemical milieu and pH of skeletal muscle and re stores local circulation. Superficial DN is thought to activate mechanorec eptors coupled to slow conducting unmyelinated C fibre afferents\, and ind irectly\, stimulate the anterior cingular cortex. Superficial DN may also be mediated througi stimulation of A delta fibres\, or via stretching of f ibroblasts in connective tissue. Superficial DN is associated with reduced local and referred pain and improved range of motion.\n\nDN may be incorp orated into a treatment plan when myofascial TrPs are present\, which may lead 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 with restrictions in range of motion due to contractured muscle fibres or taut bands\, or other soft tissue restrictions\, such as fascial adhesions or scar tissue. TrPs have been identified in numerous diagnoses and can t reat radiculopathies\, joint dysfunction\, disk pathology\, tendinopathies \, cranio-mandibular dysfunction\, headaches and migraines\, tension-type headaches\, carpal tunnel syndrome\, computer-related or repetitive strain disorders\, whiplash associated injury\, spinal dysfunction\, pelvic pain \, post-herpetic neuralgia\, complex regional pain syndromes\, sports inju ries\, 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 about Dry Needling\, click here.\n\nA Club Physio Dry Needling Online Cou rse includes:\n\nAll resource material shared during the online course\;\n Certificate of attendance in digital form (with CPD points/hours depending on your areas approval / accreditation)\;\nPathway to completing the Dry Needling Level 1 attendance course and the DN level 2 certification course and certifying as a dry needling practitioner\;\nPlease note:\nDry Needli ng courses are for healthcare therapists / professionals (clinical physiot herapists (PT's)\, chiropractors (DC's)\, osteopaths (DO's)\, podiatrists\ , soft tissue and manual therapists\, kinesiologists\, doctors\, nurses\, medical specialists and acupuncturists) for whom dry needling is within yo ur scope of practice and you are legally permitted to needle in your regis tered country / state. No minimum dry needling or previous acupuncture exp erience required but presumed anatomy\, advanced palpation skills and clin ical expertise is expected due to the advanced nature and in depth structu re of our DN courses.
