DRY NEEDLING THERAPY

DRY NEEDLING THERAPY

Dry Needling therapy is a modern, evidence-based technique that uses sterile, very thin needles to stimulate myofascial trigger points and dysfunctional neuromuscular structures.

Price: 370 lei

Duration: 20–40 minutes

The goal of this therapy is pain reduction, normalization of muscle tone, and restoration of neuromuscular function without injecting any substances. It is highly effective for acute and chronic muscle pain, myofascial dysfunction, and sports rehabilitation.

What is Dry Needling Therapy?

Dry Needling is based on the principle that myofascial trigger points are common sources of pain and dysfunction. Needle insertion produces a neuromuscular reflex response, activating central and peripheral analgesic mechanisms, supporting neuro-musculo-fascial self-regulation, and improving muscle function.

Core Principles of Dry Needling

  1. Myofascial trigger points are frequent sources of pain and dysfunction.

  2. Mechanical stimulation of the needle triggers a neuromuscular reflex response.

  3. Central and peripheral analgesic mechanisms are activated.

  4. The body is a neuro-musculo-fascial self-regulating system, and Dry Needling supports its functional restoration.

Components of Dry Needling Therapy

▪️ Assessment of muscles and myofascial chains – identifying affected areas

▪️ Identification of active and latent trigger points

▪️ Insertion of a sterile needle using specific techniques

▪️ Local twitch response (LTR) – confirming the effectiveness of the treatment

▪️ Integration with stretching and functional re-education – for long-term results

Indications for Dry Needling Therapy

Dry Needling is recommended for:

▪️ Acute and chronic muscle pain

▪️ Myofascial syndromes

▪️ Cervical, lumbar, and dorsal pain

▪️ Tension headaches and muscular migraines

▪️ Functional tendinopathies

▪️ Sports recovery

It is effective for both chronic pain relief and accelerating post-injury or post-exercise recovery.

Benefits of Dry Needling Therapy

▪️ Rapid pain relief

▪️ Reduction of muscle hyperactivity

▪️ Improved mobility and muscle function

▪️ Normalization of neuromuscular control

▪️ Faster recovery and improved physical performance

▪️ Complementary to other manual and rehabilitation therapies

Precautions and Contraindications

Precautions:

▪️ Low pain threshold

▪️ Severe fatigue or stress

▪️ Anticoagulant therapy (individual assessment)

▪️ Pregnancy (adapted treatment areas)

Contraindications:

▪️ Severe needle phobia

▪️ Severe coagulation disorders

▪️ Local or systemic infections

▪️ Active neoplasms on the treated area

What to Expect in a Session

A Dry Needling session includes:

  1. Clinical and functional assessment – analyzing muscles and identifying trigger points

  2. Application of Dry Needling – personalized to the patient’s needs

  3. Post-therapy recommendations – hydration and light movement to maintain the effect
