Dry Needling

Get rid of your complaints faster and for good

At Smith Physiotherapy, we don’t believe in standard exercise programmes. That’s why we always start with a personal analysis of your complaint. Based on that, we create a tailored treatment plan combining hands-on techniques (such as manual therapy, dry needling or deep tissue massage) with targeted exercises.

 

This way, we address not only your symptoms, but also the root cause. For faster and lasting recovery.

Dry Needling

Dry needling involves inserting a needle into the muscles to address trigger points, knots, pain and stiffness. The physiotherapist inserts a very fine needle into the muscle to allow it to relax quickly and long-term.

 

Trigger points are small knots in the muscles that can cause painful, radiating complaints. They can manifest as:

• Pain and/or stiffness in a specific area of a muscle, as well as radiating pain
• Movement restrictions in associated joints
• Reduced strength in the affected muscle(s)
• Pain avoidance behaviour — you move differently to avoid pain
• Tingling in the arm/leg, headaches or dizziness
