Dry Needling for Pain Relief

Dry Needling for Sciatica and Glute Pain at Simple Wellness Myotherapy & Osteo in Rowville
Dry Needling is a fast, safe and effective treatment to relieve pain, rapidly reduce muscle tension and improve your ability to move comfortably.

Dry Needling uses single-use needles (similar to Acupuncture needles) to directly stimulate a physical response from muscles, resulting in reduced pressure and pain.

How is Dry Needling different from Acupuncture?

​Dry Needling is a modern Western technique for aiding injury recovery, addressing longstanding muscle imbalance and promoting healing. Needles are inserted directly to the target muscles for an immediate effect on pain and tightness.

Unlike Acupuncture, Dry Needling is not a Traditional Chinese Medicine practice - although the needles we use are the same, the techniques and approach used are quite different.

Dry Needling doesn't address energy lines, or Meridians, in the body. Its used primarily for effective musculoskeletal healthcare.

Dry Needling for back pain

Dry Needling can help with:

  • Muscle pain, tightness and imbalances
  • Nerve compression and symptoms (sharp shooting pain, tingling, burning, numbness, pins & needles) including sciatica, carpal tunnel and other nerve injuries
  • Reducing pain referral from trigger points
  • Stimulating underactive muscle groups
  • Promoting increased localised circulation for improved healing of injuries

​All of our practitioners - Myotherapists and Osteopath - are qualified to provide Dry Needling in your appointment where its clinically indicated.

Meet Peter Pascalis, Clinical Myotherapist

Peter is a Clinical Myotherapist with a Bachelor degree in Health Science (Myotherapy)
​
He is one of our clinics most popular practitioners when it comes to Dry Needling. Peter has taken almost every Dry Needling Professional Development course across Australia, and has travelled to Sydney, Brisbane, Perth and Alice Springs in pursuit of advanced techniques.

He is particularly interested in the powerful combination of Dry Needling and targeted exercises for rehabilitation after injuries, as well as the use of Dry Needling for chronic pain conditions and cases of nerve impingement like sciatica.
