… you didn’t name the 2nd mm - which one is it ?
I hate using gloves all together- it interferes with palpating.. but I know we have to …😮
hmmmmmm You take the time to put this video together (which is useful), but then you don't bother coming back to answer even one question???
Is this program offered in Nashville if so how do I go about getting it
How much is program without insurance? I live in Nashville Tn.
Where are the exercises shown???
I’ve been dealing with tennis elbow for 2 years. It’s really disrupted my pickleball game. I’ve tried everything including not playing for a year. Next, I’m going to try dry needling… as soon as I get back from vacation in Florida to play pickleball for a week. Wish me luck! For the week of play and the dry needling cure too!
Any results?
🙏🏼👌🌹
I've had tennis elbow for a little over 2 months. Been doing stretches for weeks with no results, but I tried this dry needling today and my symptoms have been alleviated to the point I am shocked. It was sore after the needling but 6 hours later and I feel great. I'll post back if anything changes.
did it permanently heal your tennis elbow?
@@tuandatyt Yes!!! I went back for one more dry needling session and I've never had any pain since. Sometimes I notice pain in that area in both arms but I'm attributing that to typing at my computer desk for too long. But the dry needling straight up fixed my arm it was crazy. What it does is it breaks up minute areas of muscle tissue and it forces the area to heal itself, it stings a tiny bit but it felt really good (also weird, because they purposefully hit nerves to stimulate the muscles and it gives you a jolting feeling, but in a good way.) Good luck!
I’m studying to be a physical therapist and I want to be certified in dry needling
Where do your clients park?
Hi , this program is something I’d like to participate in. But I’m in Central California 😢what can I do to find anything similar if any. Iv had no luck in finding any help with my hip and knees my left side is slowly killing me and I want cortisone where before I never thought of that but it hurts so badly it’s causeing furtjer pain and then comes back worse. Thanks
After being very fit and flexible, for some reason my hips have become tight 😭 I have tried everything, from physio to hydro therapy, which did help, but it was dangerous getting in and out of the pool. I was a lap swimmer 😭 I've read that being fit and flexible, could have caused my tight hips 😭 In my 60's I could still do the splits, Tibo , cross trainer, bike and weights, plus swimming. Now 68, I need an aide to walk 😭. I'm on the trials list, for stemcell procedure 🙏 That saying "Move it, or lose it, is crap 😡
Using the radius as a backdrop or staying superficial to it?
I usually use the radius/ other bone as a backdrop just so I know I'm going where I should be going!
@@camwongphysio Just curious what is meant by backdrop?
@@Hobbyist387 Great question! Backdrop is essentially the thing at the very back of where your needle will end up. In this case, the radial bone will be the backdrop as I know once i hit it, that's the furthest the needle will penetrate. In other situations where there isn't a bone you can reliably use as a backdrop, i will often use my fingers as a backdrop. This would be for when i needle for example the upper trap muscles where there won't be a bone at the very depth of where the needle will go, so I will need to feel the needle on the other end of the muscle so I know how deep to go and don't go through the other side of the skin (lol). Hope that made sense!
@@camwongphysio awesome it did make sense thanks! So in this context, does that mean the needle is actually physically contacting the surface of the bone (and if so, is that completely safe?) Or is the practitioner able to feel it coming and stop right before?
@@Hobbyist387 yup! The needle comes into direct contact with the bone and it's completely safe.
is there a place close to Oakville?
Good work
its the only treatment that healed my tennis elbow which i suffered for 5months ❤️❤️ kudos to dry needling ❤️❤️
Did it permanently heal your tennis elbow?
Poor practice. You can’t used the same needle 🙈
No this isn't true. We may sometimes reuse dry needling needles on the same patient if they require more than one area needled. Safe needling practices are followed with every client. Every needle is discarded after each client.
What's your disagreement with that? So long as the needle/ treatment area stays sterile, there shouldn't be anything wrong with using the same needle on the same patient.
I had total right hip, and total right knee replacements in 2009, which are now fine, and I am quite happy with them. But then l had a total left knee replacement in 2016, which wasn't very successful. I was still in a lot of pain, but it was all on the inside of my left knee. I had a revision on my left knee in 2018, which was also unsuccessful (pain wise). The pain is still there, on the inside of my left knee. The Orthopaedic Consultant said that there wasn't anything wrong with the total knee replacement. We discussed whether it could possibly be a tendon or ligament problem. The Consultant said that if it was either of the two, then it could be a tricky operation to fix it. He also said that with the current situation with Covid, he was doubtful if the NHS would fund the operation. Could your program offer me any relief from my agonising pain? John. From Nottingham.
Terrible

Use the same needle for each poke? Doesnt sound right
Yeah definitely not right. Should use a fresh needle each time. This is bad practice 😭

Beautiful. Hi I'm ilavarasan physiotherapist from India. Is there job vacancy at your clinic.. ?
Great all trigger point same needle beware of NSI & Infection

Waooow super 😍😍... thanks for sharing your clinic tour .
💎💎👍👍
Good job
💎💎💎👍
Mh and of u
So gudd
Should never rub sanitizer on gloves. For many reasons. Over all its just poor practice.
Esp using the same needle
My thoughts exactly. We always use new needles if the needle exits body
Thanku 🙏 From india🇮🇳

After doing more research, that "plunging" he does is WRONG! Even done the "right" way it's still a no go. Massage, TENS, EMS are good enough without risking damage to nerves or having to bleed. Besides, puncturing just causes the creation of more scar tissue, so that seems to defeat the purpose, imo.
Im glad you googled it and are now a fully licensed dry needling professor
The researh5has not identified any significant risk of scar tissue or nerve damage. Please provide your source for your claims. The research on this supports its effectiveness, but the mechanism of action remains equivocal. There are suggestions that the wound itself, know as therapeutic sounding, may be the mechanism that leads to healing.
Plenty of peer-reviewed research to support the benefit of dry needling compared to corticosteroid injections, read up and learn something
@@asmrzone6832 🤣🤣
oh HELL no! that's BS. I'll stick with massage, thank you.
It actually helps and the pain isn’t that bad but can vary. I’m currently doing physical therapy and have done it 6 times in my legs so far.
A massage is trying to release that "knot", right? Well...the knot that requires massage is scar tissue in the muscle fibers. By dry needling that trigger point, the muscle activates and moves that muscle fiber, moving that scar tissue away. I've had this done on my shoulder blade, my spine, my neck, and my calves....way better than massage ever did. I'm having tennis elbow issues for 1st time ever. I'll be doing this in the near future.
Its often painless
We learned NOT to piston move the needle. Unnecessary trauma and discomfort. A twist of the needle is sufficient to stimulate the fascia
I've been self-needling for my tennis elbow as it's really the only treatment that gives me instant relief, long-lasting relief (48 - 72 hours). With small needles (.25) I've noticed better results if I gently piston around till I find the trigger point, then piston the area a little more until the trigger point discomfort is gone. Gently and slowly! The stick and twist method just doesn't give me the same results. I've tried bigger needles, such as a .3 and find them to be an overkill for the forearm extensors. Can go too deep and put up a lot more resistance (and cause more discomfort from pistoning.) Don't take my word for it though, I'm just a high school teacher. However, I've been two 3 different specialists, and none of them can land all the trigger points like I can to myself.
@@kylehaugstad2910 what needles do you use? What’s the best way to learn to do it yourself? Im a mechanic and my tennis elbow/forearms are killing me. Thanks!
She took that like a champ, I had to get it done on my forearm extensor... To the bone good times
This is glorious, been searching for "does tennis elbow brace work" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Eiyamilla Reputable Expediency - (just google it ) ? It is a good exclusive product for discovering how to end your tennis elbow problem without the headache. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my brother in law got excellent success with it.
I just tried this , only had 1 treatment so far but Holly I will say this ....the hoc as pocus actually works and it's very bizarre sensation ot seems to work.i was told 3 to 4 treatments should have some really good resaults
Brian M I’m getting it this morning, did it work for you
@@DrDeath-pk2tt it did work in a way but I went with a different route after a few treatments. I must say it was a very bizzar feeling on how it works .... how did you find your first treatment resaults ?
Brian M I actually thought it would hurt I hate needles but I felt nothing , I didn’t feel the electrons that much but I only did it once and couldn’t see much help so far
@@Brian.Martin what other treatment route did you try? My tennis elbow is very discouraging
Ok I fainted! 😭😭😭
