How does dry needling help in trigger point release?
Dry needling does not simply “break a muscle knot”.
A myofascial trigger point is an area of dysfunctional muscle fibers with abnormal motor end-plate activity. When a fine needle is inserted into this point, it can produce a local twitch response, helping to normalize muscle activity.
This neuromuscular response may lead to:
▪️ Reduced muscle tone
▪️ Decreased pain sensitivity
▪️ Improved movement
🛑 Dry needling is used as part of a comprehensive physiotherapy treatment plan, not as a standalone cure.
🛑 Dry needling should be performed by a trained physiotherapist.
