Dry Needling
Dry Needling at Marsden Park Chiropractic:
Are you struggling with stubborn muscle pain, tension, or limited movement? At Marsden Park Chiropractic, we offer Dry Needling—a cutting-edge therapy designed to target the root cause of your discomfort and help you move freely again.
What is Dry Needling?
Dry Needling is a modern, evidence-based treatment that uses ultra-fine, sterile needles to release tight muscle knots known as trigger points. Unlike traditional acupuncture, Dry Needling is grounded in Western medicine and focuses on your body’s anatomy and physiology.
Key Benefits:
- Rapid pain relief, often after just one session
- Improved flexibility and range of motion
- Reduced muscle tension and stiffness
- Enhanced recovery from injury or overuse

How Does Dry Needling Work?
Our expert practitioners gently insert fine needles into specific trigger points within your muscles. This process:
- Releases muscle knots and tension
- Boosts local blood flow and healing
- Interrupts pain signals sent to your brain
- Restores normal muscle function
What Are Trigger Points?
Trigger points are sensitive, tight bands within your muscles that can cause pain, stiffness, and even refer discomfort to other areas. They often develop from:
- Repetitive movements (for example: computer work, sports, music)
- Poor posture or stress
- Muscle overload, injury, or lack of movement
Is Dry Needling Safe?
Absolutely. At Marsden Park Chiropractic, your safety is our top priority. We use single-use, sterile needles and follow strict hygiene protocols. Most patients experience only mild soreness, similar to post-exercise muscle fatigue.
Who Should Avoid Dry Needling?
Dry Needling is not suitable for everyone. We do not recommend it for:
- Individuals with a strong fear of needles
- Those unable to provide consent
- Patients with certain medical conditions (bleeding disorders, immune compromise, pregnancy, etc.)

Are There Any Risks?

- Temporary muscle soreness or bruising
- Mild fatigue
- Rarely, fainting or infection (minimised by our strict protocols)
What to Expect After Your Session

your results. We may recommend heat therapy, hydration, or supportive taping to aid your
recovery.

Frequently Asked
Is Dry Needling The Same As Acupuncture?
No. Dry Needling is based on modern anatomy and science, not traditional Chinese medicine.

Many patients notice improvement after just one session, but your practitioner will recommend a plan tailored to your needs.
Does It Hurt?
Most people feel only a brief pinch or twitch. Any soreness usually fades within 24-48 hours.
