IMS Dry Needling
What is IMS Dry Needling?
IMS Dry Needling is a therapy where a trained physiotherapist uses very thin, sterile needles to help tight and painful muscles relax. This treatment targets muscles that are stuck in tension and helps improve movement, reduce pain, and support healing naturally. Dry needling does not use medicine and is safe when done by a professional.
How IMS Dry Needling Works
IMS Dry Needling helps your muscles and nerves work better. Tight muscle bands called trigger points can block normal movement and cause pain. The very thin needle helps release these tight spots, improves blood flow and reduces muscle tension so your body can move more freely and feel less pain.
- Releases deep muscle tension
- Reduces pain naturally
- Improves movement and flexibility
- Helps muscles relax faster
- Supports overall recovery
- Works well with other physiotherapy care

IMS Dry Needling is used to treat muscle pain and tight areas that cause discomfort and limit movement. We use this treatment for problems like neck pain, shoulder tightness, back pain, muscle knots, sports injuries and pain that does not go away easily. It works well when muscles feel hard, sore or stuck and normal movement feels difficult.
This treatment is also helpful for headaches caused by muscle tension, nerve-related muscle pain and pain after injury or overuse. IMS Dry Needling targets the root cause of muscle pain and helps muscles relax, move better and heal faster. When combined with physiotherapy exercises, it helps reduce pain and prevents the problem from coming back.

IMS Dry Needling works best when combined with other physiotherapy care such as stretching, exercise and movement training. This helps your body heal faster, stay flexible and improve strength over time.
