Description for our service
Acupuncture (Dry Needling)
At The Physio Fitness, our Dry Needling therapy targets trigger points within the muscles to relieve pain, stiffness, and tension effectively. Using fine, sterile needles, this modern technique stimulates natural healing, improves blood flow, and restores normal muscle function. It’s especially beneficial for athletes and individuals experiencing chronic pain, muscle knots, or restricted movement—helping you regain strength, flexibility, and overall body balance naturally.

Few Of The Common Concerns
Acupuncture (Dry Needling) effectively helps release muscle tension and relieve pain caused by tight or overused muscles. Some of the most common concerns it helps with include:
What is Dry Needling?
Dry Needling is a therapeutic technique where thin, sterile needles are inserted into specific trigger points in the muscles to relieve tension, reduce pain, and improve movement.
How is Dry Needling different from traditional acupuncture?
While both use fine needles, Dry Needling is based on modern anatomy and focuses on releasing tight muscles and trigger points, whereas acupuncture is rooted in traditional Chinese medicine and works on energy meridians.
Is Dry Needling painful?
Most people feel only a mild prick or twitch when the needle reaches a trigger point. Any discomfort is brief, and you’ll usually feel relief and relaxation soon after the session.
What conditions can Dry Needling help with?
It’s effective for neck and back pain, muscle tightness, headaches, sciatica, sports injuries, and joint stiffness
How long does a Dry Needling session last?
A typical session at The Physio Fitness lasts 20–45 minutes, depending on the area treated and the severity of the condition.
Are there any side effects?
Minor soreness or slight bruising at the needle site may occur but usually subsides within a day or two. The treatment is completely safe when performed by our trained therapists.
