Dry Needling: Releasing Muscle Tension and Restoring Function

Persistent muscle pain, tension, or tightness holding you back? At VIP Physio, we offer Dry Needling therapy — a powerful treatment used to reduce pain, release trigger points, and restore your body’s natural movement patterns.

Dry needling is a modern and effective approach to treating myofascial pain, which often stems from overused or injured muscles. Whether you're dealing with headaches, joint pain, or chronic tightness, our experienced physiotherapists can help relieve discomfort and improve your function — safely and effectively.

What is Dry Needling?

Dry needling involves the insertion of fine, sterile, single-use needles into tight or painful areas within the muscle, known as trigger points or “knots.” These trigger points can restrict movement and cause referred pain in other parts of the body.

By directly targeting these points, dry needling helps:

  • Relax contracted muscle fibres

  • Relieve nerve pressure

  • Improve circulation

  • Stimulate the body’s healing process

At VIP Physio, we combine dry needling with a personalised exercise-based rehabilitation plan to correct underlying biomechanical issues and achieve long-term results.

Benefits of Dry Needling

Many clients experience immediate relief after dry needling sessions. Key benefits include:

  • Release of endorphins for natural pain relief

  • Improved muscle function and flexibility

  • Enhanced blood flow and healing

  • Reduced inflammation and tension

Whether you're an athlete recovering from injury or someone struggling with chronic muscle pain, dry needling may be the solution you need.

Conditions Treated with Dry Needling

Our physiotherapists use dry needling to effectively manage a wide range of conditions, such as:

  • Headaches and migraines

  • Neck and back pain

  • Sciatica and nerve-related pain

  • Shoulder and knee pain

  • Muscle spasms or tightness

  • Osteoarthritis and general musculoskeletal discomfort

Each treatment is tailored to your specific condition, ensuring safe and effective care across all our clinic locations.
