benefits of dry needling

By John Hunter-Holmes01 September, 2015Uncategorized

The benefits of dry needling can go beyond the treatment of myofascial pain, back pain and joint dysfunction. Although dry needling is a very effective way of treating trigger points and can substantially reduce pain when other techniques have failed, we have found that many people report other benefits. Beyond reduced pain and better function patients have reported improved energy levels, better appetite and sleep as well as an overall sense of enhanced well being.

By emailing us (info@lucerneclinic.co.uk), please let us know if you are a patient that has benefited from dry needling other than from reduced pain and better function.

Dry Needling and it’s effect on pain

By John Hunter-Holmes04 August, 2015Back Pain

We’ve started using dry needling at the Lucerne Clinic over the last few weeks. After only a few sessions we have already had some great results with patients presenting with many different problems, aches and pains.

Some of the best results have been with chronic, long term sufferers of pain. Dry needling can help kick start the local tissue repair process, by creating a local reaction, which re ignites the body’s self healing mechanism. Additionally the act of dry needling has an effect on the central nervous system and the areas where pain is processed in the brain.
