Dry Needling
Dry needling, which is used in physiotherapy sessions, is a specialised form of acupuncture where solid filament needles are inserted into the skin and muscle directly at a myofascial trigger point.
Physiotherapy, often referred to as “physio”, uses physical methods such as manual therapy, massage, exercises and manipulation to promote healing and well-being. Physio treatments are often used to help restore a person’s strength and range of motion after injury or illness.

Chartered physiotherapy is a profession based on scientific and evidence-based practices which can only be achieved after a number of years studying in a university. In Ireland, chartered physiotherapists are governed by the Irish Society of Chartered Physiotherapists (ISCP) and are under strict guidelines to carry out continued professional development. Keeping up-to-date with training and practice ensures the best care for patients.
