Why have Electro Dry Needling?

Electro-Dry Needling improves blood circulation and the transport of natural painkillers such as endorphins and opioids in order to reduce pain. Blood circulation is also stimulated, promoting the delivery of nutrients to tissues, accelerating the healing process.

Low frequency/high intensity Electro-Dry Needling produces long term pain relief increasing over several hours after treatment.

High frequency/low intensity Electro-Dry Needling produces quick acting, short term pain relief by preventing pain messages from travelling to the brain and blocking nerve pathways. 

What Does Electro Needling Feel Like?

This will depend on the frequency used and the desired results. The sensation will be somewhere between a slight buzzing to an obvious rhythmic twitching sensation. Your Myotherapist will always ask what the sensation is like and if it is painful, the intensity will be adjusted accordingly. 

Is Needling part of a treatment or done on it’s own?

It can be  a standalone treatment or as part of a Myotherapy or Remedial Massage treatment depending on who you book with. Myotherapists learn Dry and Electro Needling as part of their course and if you have a Myotherapy appointment it will be included. Remedial therapists do a separate course and the cost is slightly higher than a remedial massage if you have Needling with a Remedial Therapist.
