18.01.2022 Book in with our Clinical Myotherapist Saxon and discover how he can help you!

10.01.2022 Dry Needling is a treatment technique that uses single-use filiform needles (acupuncture needles) that are inserted into varied layers of skin, subcutaneous tissue and muscles in order to treat skeletal muscle hypertonicity, connective tissue dysfunction and myofascial trigger points, to help reduce peripheral pain and improve bodily function. .. Dry Needling is a westernised evidence and clinical-based technique that shares some similarities yet differs vastly from Chinese a...cupuncture and has been proved highly effective in the treatment of musculoskeletal pain. .. Dry Needling involves reaching to and through a myofascial trigger point (muscle knot), increasing blood flow containing fresh oxygen and nutrients, elevating the chemical pH and provoking a brisk contraction in muscle fibres known as local twitch response. Studies have shown that local twitch responses decrease, even eradicate endplate noise associated with trigger points, resulting in their inactivation. .. Dry Needling is an extremely effective treatment for acute and chronic pain, decreased flexibility, joint dysfunction and recovery from physical activity and competition. Common conditions that can be treated with Dry Needling: Headaches Neck Pain Lower Back Pain Shoulder Dysfunction (impingement, rotator cuff strain, adhesive capsulitis) Knee Pain (Osteoarthritis) IT Band Syndrome Hip Pain Ankle Sprains Muscle Strains Tennis & Thrower's Elbow Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (Runner's Knee) Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome (Shin Splints) Achilles Tendinopathy Plantar Fasciitis .. If you're experiencing any of these aches or pains, book your Myotherapy appointment to see Saxon, and find out how he can help! See more
