Getting to the point on a deeper level.
Dry-Needling is not acupuncture, it is based on western medical and scientific principles, targeting often very hyperactive soft tissue, often known as muscle spasm or trigger points.
Often a source of pain in musculoskeletal issues, dry-needling is used to diffuse the hyperactivity. It involves the insertion of a needle which can induce a ‘local twitch response’. It can also be used to aid scars, reduce muscle tension and adhesions.
“Manya is great. I’ve used her to fix various cycling and running injuries. I’ve gone weeks with painful knots in muscles that I’ve tried resting but that have stubbornly come back as soon as I return to exercise. One session with Manya and they’ve gone. It’s some of the best money I’ve ever spent. Highly recommended.”.
