Needling techniques used as part of a broader MSK plan
Our podiatrists use dry needling and, where appropriate, electroacupuncture to help selected muscle and myofascial pain presentations in the foot, ankle, and lower limb.
What to expect at your appointment
We explain what these techniques can and cannot do, screen for contraindications, and combine them with exercises, load management, and hands-on care where needed.
Why patients choose our podiatry team
- Clear screening before needling is used
- Plain-language explanation of sensations and after-effects
- Integrated with exercise and rehabilitation rather than used in isolation
- Follow-up based on response and function
