Dry Needling & Musculoskeletal Acupuncture
Musculoskeletal pain often stems from trigger points or tender areas within the muscle. Dry needling targets these points with fine acupuncture needles to release muscle tension and alleviate pain. This technique may be used alone or alongside massage therapy to provide lasting relief.
About Dry Needling and Musculoskeletal Acupuncture
Dry needling involves the insertion of fine acupuncture needles into muscle trigger points, helping to release tension and reduce pain. This therapy targets tight muscle fibres, improving flexibility and promoting relaxation. Musculoskeletal acupuncture focuses on the broader musculoskeletal system to provide relief.
How does Dry Needling work?
By inserting fine needles into muscle trigger points, dry needling releases tension in taut muscle fibers, reducing pain and enhancing mobility. This release can last up to 72 hours, and a few sessions can significantly improve muscle tissue flexibility and reduce discomfort.

- Musculoskeletal Pain
- Surgery Recovery
- Migraines
- Arthritis

“Jo Callender has been my massage therapist for almost 5 years. I have a regular appointment with Jo once every three weeks, and I have always been satisfied with her treatment. She has treated me for both remedial massage and for lymphatic drainage during that time.
Jo’s personal approach is empathic and compassionate, and her massage approach is confident and solution-based. She listens to her patients and is sensitive to those times when peace and quiet is required, and also to those times when an understanding ear is needed.
Whilst I am sure I could find a massage therapist who is closer to home, I choose to take the one-hour round trip to continue to see Jo.”
“I am writing to both thank you and endorse what I have received as a client of yours in your practice as a Remedial Massage therapist.
Since the commencement of regular therapeutic massage at your hands, I have had no migraines, which I had been having several times a month.
Your strengths and main assets as a practitioner are your ability to diagnose the predominant problem and effectively treat the area. Even after one session, I had increased ease and efficiency of movement and felt muscle function had improved. No debilitating migraines since commencing regular massage sessions are proof in itself.
I have tried the skills of many Remedial Massage therapists and practitioners and am sorry that my moving will mean I am no longer able to utilize your services. Your professional ability, warmth, and friendliness of personality, as I know it in your practice, will be difficult to replace.
Best wishes and many grateful thank-you’s for returning Saturdays back to a day of relaxed ability to do whatever is fanciable!”
