Dry needling is a technique that is now considered the gold standard in releasing tight muscles. It is a technique that consists of briefly inserting a small acupuncture like needle (approximately 0.3mm thick) into a trigger point within a muscle.
The needle is inserted into the tight bands of the muscle belly, often referred to as trigger points. Repeated overuse of muscles and injuries can lead to muscle tightness. The insertion of the dry needle causes the muscle to contract briefly, known as a “twitch”.
Following the “twitch” the muscle relaxes and this in turn allows it to relax and potentially reducing pain.
What To Expect At An Appointment With A Podiatrist?
Initial consultation with a podiatrist will include a thorough assessment of your foot and ankle, as well as a gait assessment and medical history anaylysis. Assessment of your symptoms will allow your podiatrist to make an informed diagnosis, and to formulate a tailored treatment plan. We use advanced techniques as part of our treatment plans including gait analysis, orthotics, shockwave therapy, dry needling and rehabilitation exercise programs so your treatment is tailored to your individual needs.
