Dry Needling in Box Hill

At Osteo Performance in Box Hill, dry needling is used as part of a holistic approach to improve movement, relieve tension, and enhance performance. We don’t just treat symptoms — we use dry needling to help the body move and function better as a whole system.

What is Dry Needling?

Dry needling is a precise technique that uses fine, single-use needles to target specific trigger points within muscles. These trigger points are often areas of tension, tightness, or overactivity that can restrict movement and contribute to pain.

By stimulating these points, dry needling helps:

  • Release tight or overactive muscles

  • Restore normal movement patterns

  • Improve blood flow and recovery

  • Reduce pain and improve muscle activation

Unlike traditional acupuncture, dry needling is based on modern anatomy and movement science — it’s about targeting muscular and neuromuscular dysfunction to support better mobility and performance.

Dry Needling Approach

Our osteopathic treatments combine hands-on techniques with structured rehabilitation and strength-based programming to help you achieve long-term change.

Each session typically includes:
✅ Comprehensive Assessment - We look at how your body moves as a whole, not just where it hurts.
✅ Manual Therapy - To reduce tension, improve joint mobility, and restore balance.
✅ Movement Coaching - Focused on posture, control, and proper loading mechanics.
✅ Rehabilitation Exercises - Targeted strength and mobility drills to reinforce lasting improvements.

We also use our custom mobile app to track progress, measure movement, and ensure every client receives a clear, data-driven rehab plan.
