  Needling or DryNeedling is a relatively new treatment modality used by osteopaths, physiotherapists, chiropractors and massage therapists worldwide.

It is becoming increasingly popular as a technique for treating a range of musculoskeletal conditions, including neck and back pain, 'tennis elbow', Iliotibial Friction Syndrome (Runners knee) and Achilles Tendinopathies.

Treatment involves the insertion of solid, filament needle, as is used in the practice of acupuncture, usually in r around Myofascial Trigger Points. Myofascial Trigger Points have been described as a "hyper-irritable spot within a skeletal muscle". Myofascial Trigger Points are points in muscles which are painful when pushed. Trigger points can refer pain and create dysfunction elsewhere in the body.
