Dry Needling for Hand Therapists

Brought to you by ACE Advanced Clinical Education. This course is designed for clinicians with a special interest in musculoskeletal injuries and presentations of the arm and hand. It is open to Hand Therapists and manual therapists such as Physiotherapists, Osteopaths, Chiropractors, Myotherapists and Occupational Therapists who have a special interest in the upper limb. 

It provides an in-depth exploration of musculoskeletal anatomy, the pathophysiology of myofascial pain, and the mechanisms behind dry needling. Participants will develop the essential skills needed to safely and effectively apply dry needling techniques to the arm and hand region.

Participants will be able to use dry needling to treat myofascial pain presentations utilising solid filament (dry) needles applied to myofascial trigger points in the arm and hand region. The practical workshop is delivered over one day (7 hours) and will develop the skills and knowledge to safely and effectively treat myofascial trigger points and other neuro-musculoskeletal causes of pain in the arm and hand.

ACE has incorporated a thorough, evidence-based approach in developing and teaching this course, utilising current pain science principles and research supported indications for dry needling treatment.

The cost includes the full day of training, all course materials including online pre-course modules, certificate of completion, and ongoing support.
