WHAT IS DRY NEEDLING?
Dry needling is based on the current understanding of neurophysiology and functional anatomy. Dry Needling builds on health professionals existing medical knowledge.
We successfully train health practitioners who look after AFL, basketball, Cycling, Cricket, Rugby, Hockey, Skiing, Swimming, Tennis, Golf, Runners, Dancers, Soccer and other elite or social athletes.
We also teach practitioners in private clinics & hospitals that manage aches & pains in the general population as well as those who work in pain clinics.
To date, we have successfully trained over 3500 practitioners.
The lecture series allows for quick progress. Our initial, very practical,two-day course, will train you to be competent in the application of Dry Needling straight away.
Our lecturer Joergen Forsberg BSc (Hons), MSc Pain Management, originally from Sweden and the UK, has lectured in dry needling nationally and internationally for over 15 years.
