What is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a technique in which a fine needle is used to penetrate the skin, subcutaneous (underlying) tissue, and muscle; and is is often used to treat myofascial trigger points (MTrPs), which are described as localised hypersensitive spots in a palpable taut band of a muscle (Gattie et al.,2017).
