Dry Needling has become incredibly popular in Physiotherapy recently. Is dry needling really the way forward for Physios?

In this podcast I chat with Andrew Hutton of Integrated Dry Needling, presenter of the Sports Integrated Dry Needling Level 1 and Level 2 courses for Clinical Edge, and we discuss dry needling and whether it complements regular Physio treatment.

Some of the topics we cover include

What are the different styles of dry needling?
How can dry needling be used in sporting populations?
How to know immediately if your needling has been effective
What is the evidence for dry needling
Studies show decreased ROM with needling, is it possible to improve ROM with dry needling
How does changing ROM actually relate to a patient’s pain?
Some clinical scenarios where dry needling could be incorporated
