This course begins on Friday evening, allowing extra time in the cadaver lab. We will take the participants into the cadaver lab each day to review the areas they are about to needle and actually see where the needle is going.
The 2.5-day intensive will prepare participants to treat most of the common diagnoses that involve myofascial pain.
The importance of safety and clean techniques are taught and practiced throughout the workshop, ensuring that participants become accustomed to working with gloves and maintaining a neat and safe workspace throughout. They will practice the techniques of inserting, manipulating, removing, and disposing of the needles on the Friday evening of the course.
Students will learn and practice the use of superficial dry needling including fascia and scars, periosteal pecking, and deep dry needling of the buttock, thigh, shoulder, cervical, and lumbar muscles.
Case studies are included to apply clinical reasoning and recognize common indications for dry needling.
This practical course ends with a practical competency exam.
