- 01Painful muscular trigger points
- 02Neck and shoulder muscle tightness
- 03Some back and limb pain of muscular origin

An assessment-led approach
After assessment, explanation and your consent, needles are applied following sterility and safety standards, then followed by movement and exercise to reinforce the benefit.
Clinical considerations
It may not be suitable during certain stages of pregnancy, for people on blood thinners, with needle phobia or bleeding disorders. Mild temporary soreness or bruising can occur.
