Welcome to WhatIsDryNeedling.com. This is a site dedicated to providing information and education on the science and art of Myofascial Dry-Needling Therapy (MDNT), a highly effective manual therapy modality. 

If you are a manual therapy practitioner such as a physiotherapist/physical therapist, chiropractor, osteopath, myotherapist, podiatrist, remedial massage therapist, sports therapist or even a TCM practitioner, MDNT is a modality that your patients will gain great benefit from.


What Is Dry-Needling? 

In short, Dry-needling harnesses the use of filiform needles (the same needles used in acupuncture) to penetrate and de-activate myofascial trigger points (myofascial pain syndrome) that cause widespread pain and biomechanical dysfunction. The response of patients to this form of therapy is on most occasions extremely positive, reducing and most often eliminating pain and restoring them to optimal musculoskeletal function. Even patients with chronic pain conditions such as those with fibromyalgia, often report a considerable and positive change in their pain reporting. MDNT provides an excellent alternative to other manual therapies when correct indications and contraindications are accounted for.
