Dry Needling
A GREAT COMPLEMENT TO HANDS ON TREATMENT FOR MANY CONDITIONS
Tired of Not Getting Results?
WE COMBINE DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES TO GET THE BEST OUTCOMES
Dry Needling is the insertion of fine acupuncture needles into tight muscles, trigger points or restricted joints. Often manual treatment on its own is not enough to shift stubborn pain and that’s where dry needling may help.
When used in combination with traditional osteopathy treatment, it may help promote tissue healing and regeneration which in turn, can speed up recovery. We have been treating locals near Beaconsfield, Berwick, Bunyip, Officer and Pakenham for years. Book a treatment and experience the benefits of dry needling.

HOW DOES DRY NEEDLING WORK?
Dry Needling increases the blood flow to the pain affected area, allowing damaged tissues to heal more rapidly. It may help to decrease muscle tension, minimise pain, increased mobility and range of motion, promote healing, tissue regeneration and even assist sleep and relaxation.
A DRUG-FREE APPROACH TO PAIN MANAGEMENT AND INJURY RECOVERY
Dry needling is so called because the needles DO NOT deliver an injection or medicine. In this way, it is a drug-free treatment for various conditions. With the current media storm about the drug epidemic and over medicating, dry needling offers a natural alternative to pain management and it may speed up injury recovery.
CONDITIONS DRY NEEDLING MAY HELP
It may be effective in treating a wide range conditions like back and neck pain, sacroiliac joint pain, hamstring problems, tennis and golfers elbow, gluteal tendinopathy, shoulder / rotator cuff injuries, muscle tightness, shin splints and sporting injuries.

DRY NEEDLING
Dry needling is a technique which involves using very fine needles to stimulate the body’s own pain relief system, without the use of drugs. Dry Needling involves the insertion of fine needles into muscle tissue which may promote and restore function.
One of the first Physicians to use Dry Needling for pain relief was Dr Karel Lewit of Czechoslovakia in the year of 1979. He reported promising results with the use of Dry Needles, by stimulating trigger points in patients with musculoskeletal pain.
Pakenham Osteopathy has been treating the locals of Officer, Beaconsfield, Bunyip and surrounding areas for over 15 years.
