Dry Needling
Dry Needling plus is an approach to musculoskeletal dry needling that does not emphasise (though does not exclude) the location and treatment of trigger points in the intramuscular tissue.
It is a fusion of traditional meridian therapy and a variety of needling techniques applied based on a system of light palpation, tissue sensitivity and movement testing and neurodynamic assessment.
The dry needling plus approach employs more superficial and more comfortable techniques than those used in approaches based on de-activating muscle trigger points. While dry needling employs the tools of acupuncture, the underpinning paradigms between dry needling and acupuncture are completely different.
