Course description:
This it the second part of two series certification which serves a two extensive days of clinical knowledge. Here we will look into history taking, anatomical, theoretical, practical hands-on and clinical aspects of Dry Needling, in addition to safety precautions and guidelines. Each muscle covered is reviewed in regards with origin, insertion, neuromuscular, vascular components and safety guidelines. Safety and efficacy of treatment both are focused. We recommend participants in the course to be familiar with anatomy and muscle function, although we will provide an update on anatomy and palpation skills. Accurate and specific anatomical knowledge is the cornerstone of any physical therapy treatment.
Course Objectives:
Understand the specific indications and contra indications of dry needling.
Know and be able to apply the safety rules of DN.
