Thank you
You’re welcome, thank you for watching.
Excellent content.
Great to hear. Thank you for your feedback 👍
This is the right Approach to Achilles tendonitis with DN, as physician I don't think that needling just muscles trigger point can solve the problem.
Great to hear Massimo and thank you for your support 👍
I had this done with some electro stimulation and it was pretty painful. Comparable to getting stung by a wasp - very intense itching and burning sensations. Is that normal?
Ideally the current is matched to client tolerance, so that it’s not too painful, but there may be some slight discomfort.
The itching is the increase in blood flow to the area, which aid healing, and the burning type sensation is linked nerve stimulation.
As healing continues and tension reduces, it should be more comfortable.
Thanks for the explanation! For how long would you recommend to pause exercising after the procedure? Can it be combined with eccentric stretching and shock wave treatment?
Advice will depend on the clients injury and injury history. But ideally advise the client not to exercise for the rest of the day.
Yes absolutely you can use this modality within combination treatment, alongside other modalities 👍🏼
Thanks!
I have had it done to my calf for Achilles pain my first time to see how the experience was since I was afraid. I felt great relief after. My PT offered to do it into the tendon and I think I’m ready now after watching you explain the process.
Ahh that great to hear.
Glad that you had benefit from Dry Needling into the calf and great to hear that you’re happy to try it in your Achilles tendon now after watching our video.
Hope you’re back to full health soon 👍
Thank you very much Doctor Dawn morse
Would this work for insertional Achilles tendinopathy?
Yes dry needling can help with this and you can needle further towards the insertion than shown in this video 👍
@@CoreElementsTraining thank you for replying and info
well done
Brilliant work ❤
Thank you. Glad the video was useful 👍🏼
What's you theory behind doing this?
There are several different benefits and effects of needling into muscle tissue and tendons.
But essentially when needling into hypertonic muscle or trigger points your aiming to trigger a relaxation effect and in the tendon your aiming to stimulate sterile inflammation and a renewed healing process.
This is an interesting paper that looked into the effects of tendon Dry Needling 👉 www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7083985/
That cadaver looks very life like
