Many people suffer discomfort and pain in the musculoskeletal system due to the increase in sedentary life and long working hours. Most of these injuries are caused by myofascial trigger points (MTrPs), hypersensitive nodules located in a tight band of muscle. PGM stimulation generates local and referred pain, which is when muscle contractures occur.

How is it used?

The objective of dry needling is to release the trigger point by inserting a needle similar to an acupuncture needle. In this way, muscle relaxation and a noticeable increase in elasticity are instantly achieved. Depending on the morphology of each person and the muscle to be punctured, one needle or another will be chosen.

When is dry needling used?

It is a very useful technique for the management of short and long-standing muscle pain. In addition, many people can benefit from it in order to relieve pain caused by muscle overload.

  • Tendinopathies, such as epicondylalgia in the elbow, supraspinatus tendinitis, inflammation of the patellar tendon and plantar fasciitis.
  • Muscle overloads and tensions both of a sporting nature due to poor execution of sporting movements or high intensity of physical activity, and due to sitting for long periods of time at work in a bad posture.
  • Low back and sciatic pain
  • Cervical pain and tension headaches that cause headaches.

What are the benefits?

The benefits of dry needling are numerous. It is also a fast, simple and low risk technique. During the first 24-48 hours after treatment the patient may experience tiredness, heaviness and even a feeling of muscular exhaustion.
