What are the obvious changes after the treatment of Dry Needling?



Dry needling is a treatment technique that is gaining popularity in treating musculoskeletal issues & pain throughout the world. This technique uses very thin needles to de activate painful trigger points in the muscle. The term ‘dry’ means that there is no liquid medicine or chemical injected into the body along with the needle. The thin solid filiform needle just goes into the affected tissues to release the trigger points or knots which are painful. This technique is primarily used for treating pain in the muscular area and may look like acupuncture but it's absolutely different from that.


Changes experienced post dry needling and some precautions:-

Dry needling leads to physiological changes in the treated part which are observed after the treatment. It’s important for you to know certain things before & after Dry needling in delhi. The list of these are as follows:-


● For some 2-3% of people, sometimes there is a minute pain during the needle insertion during dry needling. This pain is actually very less for example on a scale of 0 to 10 its just 1-2 level and is very much tolerable to all patients. The pain is not like as u experience during other injection or vaccination in your body. This is because the injection needle is thick in size and its hollow to introduce drug in to the body whereas in dry needling the needle is very thin like hair and it’s not hollow and has no medicine.

● Post dry needling, sometimes there is minor soreness which is similar to when you feel sore after doing a long walk or work out. This will subside in few hours.

● Sometimes pain is not due to dry needling, but due to the fear of needles. Their bodies out of fright may end up giving a completely different response to the dry needling treatment. People who have this fright often end up with a higher breathing rate, increased heartbeat, dry mouth etc. All this together can trigger various unwanted effects in the body like too much sweat or some people even faint. Hence, people who are afraid of needles as well as pregnant women should avoid dry needling.

● Another scenario where you should first consult before going for dry needling is in case you are suffering from any kind of skin infection. Taking dry needling treatment while you are already suffering from a skin infection is not recommended.

● Dry needling is not meant for someone suffering from bleeding disorders like haemophilia, epilepsy, lymphedema and vascular disease and also dry needling is also not recommended for people who are on high dosage of blood thinners.

● Some other symptoms which are seen post dry needling are minor pain at the site, small bruising, sweating, nausea, fainting, headaches, extreme fatigue, emotional reaction. These symptoms are absolutely normal after a dry needling treatment and settle down automatically.
