Relief through Needles: How Dry Needling Can Alleviate Your Chronic Low Back Pain
Pain may arise due to myofascial pain syndrome
Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is a regional pain disorder characterised by the presence of trigger points (TrPs) within muscles or fascia. It is a common source of pain in primary care or pain clinics
At least 1 in 3 people who report to pain clinics have a trigger point from myofascial pain syndrome
the two things we use to diagnose trigger points are:
presence of a hypersensitive spot in the taut band, and
referred pain sensation elicited by stimulation of the point.
Here's what a 2024 research review found about how dry needling can help your lower back pain
The main findings of this review were:
Dry needling can decrease post-intervention pain intensity and pain disability when compared to other treatments
The results vary at follow-up
A combination of dry needling plus other treatments can be better than dry needling monotherapy
Larger needles are more effective when compared to fine needles
Dry needling can increase spinal mobility measures and quality of life after treatment.
