An in-depth Video how dry needling 📍 works by 🕸 Myophysio
1. Dry needling can help reduce pain and soreness.
If you're fine with thin, sterile needles that don't involve much, if any, pain, you might consider this therapeutic technique if your physical therapist recommends it. A specially trained physical therapist uses a thin needle to release muscle tightness, ease tendonitis and inflammation, and/or promote healing.
2. How does dry needling work with chronic muscle tightness?
It stimulates a trigger point in a skeletal muscle. You might call it a knot, and it can cause more widespread pain than just the muscle in which it's found. Another name for a trigger point is myofascial pain syndrome. A tight band of skeletal muscle inside a larger muscle group, a trigger point can be tender when you touch it and may cause pain in other areas of your body.
As part of a larger treatment plan, your therapist is using dry needling to try to release the trigger point, relieving pain and/or improving your movement. Dry needling can reduce muscle tension and improve pain. A twitch can occur when the needle goes into the trigger point, and may be a sign that the therapy is working.
3. Where do trigger points often occur?
On your neck, back and arms. Runners often get them on their legs. But there are many conditions that dry needling can help including:
Shoulder pain.
Headaches.
Knee pain.
Achilles tendonitis.
Sciatica.
Plantar fasciitis.
Hip and gluteal pain.
4. Therapeutic dry needling promotes healing.
The technique also can help with muscular issues that don't involve trigger points or such as rotator cuff damage. The needle creates a tiny lesion in the tissue, promoting blood flow and healing to the area.
5. Dry needling is different from acupuncture.
The two philosophies are quite different. Therapeutic dry needling is based on Western medicine. Acupuncture is based in Chinese medicine and focuses on balancing the flow of energy in the body.
6. No liquid is involved.
The needle itself produces release in the trigger point. There's no solution injected into the muscle.

An extremely complex or rather not well understood therapy cannot be described or explained in 00:50 seconds.

The exact way dry needling works is not well understood. This video is mainly used for patients to give them an idea what happens.

Lastly do you have any links or articles on electro stimulation for desensitizing spinal segments with micro current ?

Dry needling can help in elbow implant?

[@MarioMuilwijk]

it might give some relieve to tension but should not be the first choice for treatment with an elbow implant. Mobility, some strength some be main focus, wherefore later you could apply it then.

Dry needling, similar to acupuncture, is a therapeutic technique whose full scientific understanding is still developing. While the exact mechanisms behind its efficacy are not completely understood, it's believed to work by stimulating specific points on the body, known as myofascial trigger points, to relieve pain and muscle tension.
The hypothesis is that inserting a needle into these trigger points can cause favorable biochemical changes, which assist in reducing pain. This process is thought to stimulate the body's natural painkillers, improve blood flow, and encourage healing. Studies have shown that many patients experience pain relief following this treatment, suggesting its effectiveness.
However, it's important to note that the scientific community has not yet fully unraveled the complexities behind how and why dry needling works. This lack of complete understanding means that while there is evidence supporting its benefits, the treatment is still considered to be based on hypotheses and ongoing research rather than a fully established scientific fact. As such, it continues to be a subject of study and debate within medical and scientific circles.
