Dry needling
Are you suffering from stiff muscles, painful trigger points, or recurring complaints? Then dry needling can be part of the treatment.
At Fysio Roode in Berghem, we use dry needling to relax tense muscles and make movement easier again. Dry needling is always applied as part of a broader physical therapy treatment.
When dry needling can help
Dry needling can be used for conditions such as:
- prolonged muscle pain
- stiff or tense muscles
- Neck and shoulder pain
- back pain
- Muscle tension headaches
- Sports injuries
- Mobility restrictions
These complaints often arise because muscles remain tense for a long time or do not work together effectively.
Dry needling is an invasive treatment procedure in which a thin filament needle is inserted into the skin and muscle. It is used to target trigger points and relieve pain.
In dry needling, we treat so-called trigger points: local hardening or sensitive spots in a muscle.
A thin needle is used to briefly stimulate the muscle. This can reduce muscle tension, often leading to increased relaxation and freedom of movement.
Dry needling is different from acupuncture. With dry needling, we focus specifically on muscles and movement.
