Neck, shoulder, and back pain are among the most common musculoskeletal issues, often caused by poor posture, muscle overuse, stress, or injury. Dry needling is an effective physiotherapy technique that targets muscle tightness and trigger points to relieve pain and restore movement.

At Pax Physiotherapy, residents of Modbury North and Clovercrest can access expert dry needling treatment as part of a comprehensive physiotherapy plan. Learn more about our approach on the About Us page.

How Dry Needling Helps Relieve Pain

Dry needling works by inserting fine, sterile needles into tight muscle bands (trigger points). This process helps to:

• Release muscle tension
• Improve blood circulation
• Reduce inflammation
• Restore normal muscle function
• Decrease referred pain

It is particularly effective for treating pain in the neck, shoulders, and back where muscle tightness is common.
