CNEX: Dry Needling for Extremity Pain Management Course Description
Imagine treating Bicep Tendonitis resulting from Shoulder Impingement by using a needle to tap on the periosteum beneath the long head tendon; promoting, local circulation and fibrogenisis. And then running needles through the super and infraspinatus muscles, adding e-stim that runs along the length of the needle, recruiting the deep fibers the lay within the scapular spine sulci. Finishing the visit with an upper thoracic adjustment to promote shoulder mobility, and rotator cuff coordination exercises to muscles that are now activated and perfused with fresh circulation.
This visit can’t be ordered online, doesn’t come with a membership, and isn’t being offered on every corner.
By including Dry Needling into your chiropractic practice, the range of conditions you can effectively manage, and therefore, the population you are now able to help, exponentially increases!
Whether you’ve always been a primarily spine practitioner, or someone experienced in addressing extremity injuries in a Sports Chiropractic setting, Dry Needling not only expands your knowledge of the relevant anatomy and pathogenesis of these injuries. It also, allows you to be far more direct with your intervention with much more specificity regarding the tissues you’re able to directly target.
For the first time ever, chiropractors will be able to manipulate and provide modalities to tissues internally, rather than attempting to address structures through layers of skin, fascia and muscle tissue as with most modalities.
