SUPERFICIAL DRY NEEDLING

Superficial Dry Needling at Casey Central Osteopathy: Effective Pain Relief in Narre Warren.

Superficial Dry Needling is an effective technique using fine, sterilized acupuncture needles to treat muscle knots, also known as myofascial trigger points. These knots are bundles of muscle fibers that remain in a constant contracted state, often causing pain. You can usually feel these knots in the painful area. This minimally invasive method involves a light prick sensation as the needle is inserted into the knot.

Benefits of Superficial Dry Needling include:

  • Nerve stimulation
  • Improved blood flow
  • Reduced inflammation
  • Decreased muscle tightness

These benefits lead to pain relief, relaxation, and improved sleep patterns.

At Casey Central Osteopathy in Narre Warren, Melbourne, we use premium quality, ultra-thin stainless steel needles approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) to ensure safety and effectiveness.

MYOFASCIAL CUPPING

Cupping Therapy at Casey Central Osteopathy: Rejuvenate Your Body in Narre Warren.

Cupping therapy involves applying suction to bring superficial muscles to the surface, often enhanced by gentle gliding of the cups to improve treatment efficiency. This technique is highly effective for tissue regeneration, rejuvenating the body by stretching tight muscles and fascia, activating the lymphatic system, and promoting circulation. Evidence-based practice shows that cupping provides excellent analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects.

Although cupping may leave round red marks on your body, it is not as painful as it appears. This discoloration is due to blood being drawn to the surface and generally subsides within a week. Experiencing mild post-treatment soreness or fatigue is normal, similar to how you might feel after a standard osteopathic consultation.

As with any technique used by our Osteopaths, there are potential adverse reactions and outcomes. At Casey Central Osteopathy in Narre Warren, Melbourne, our qualified Osteopaths ensure a detailed history and examination are taken to determine the suitability of cupping therapy for you, minimising risks to ensure the benefits outweigh any potential drawbacks
