Dry Needling in Battersea, Get to the Root of Your Pain & Discomfort

Are you curious about the Chinese art of Acupuncture and seeking a natural way to address aches and pains? We offer a similar and targeted approach with dry needling and trigger point massage. Delivered by our skilled physiotherapists and sports therapists, dry needling aims to release those stubborn knots, ease your pain, and restore your body's natural healing abilities.

By inserting fine needles into specific trigger points, we can release tension and reduce pain, improve flexibility and range of motion, accelerate healing by boosting blood circulation and tissue repair to recover faster from injuries and address headaches and referred pain. Rest assured, our procedures are safe and performed by trained professionals.

For those who prefer a needle-free approach, trigger point massage offers a gentler way to release muscle tension and alleviate pain. Our skilled therapists use their hands to apply targeted pressure to those troublesome trigger points, providing relief and restoring your body's natural balance.

Ready to experience the transformative power of dry needling and trigger point massage? Our Battersea clinic is conveniently located on St John's Hill, SW11 5, minutes from Clapham Junction Station, Wandsworth Town Station, and Wandsworth Common. Book your appointment online or give us a call today. Let's get you back to living a pain-free life!


Your Questions About Dry Needling in Battersea Answered

What are the benefits of Dry Needling? Dry needling isn't just about easing those aches and pains; it's about restoring your body's natural ability to heal. Targeting trigger points can reduce pain, improve muscle function and flexibility, and boost blood circulation to accelerate recovery. Even those pesky headaches stemming from referred pain can be tackled with dry needling.

What is the difference between Acupuncture and Dry Needling? While both therapies use fine needles, their origins and focus differ. Acupuncture, steeped in Traditional Chinese Medicine, aims to balance energy flow along meridians throughout the body. On the other hand, dry needling is a modern, Western approach that targets muscle trigger points to relieve musculoskeletal pain.

Who can benefit from Dry Needling and Trigger Point Massage? Whether you're a seasoned athlete, a busy professional, or someone struggling with persistent pain, dry needling and trigger point massage can offer relief. From chronic muscle tension and sports injuries to conditions like arthritis and fibromyalgia, these therapies can help you regain mobility and improve your quality of life. Even those battling headaches and migraines can find relief through these targeted treatments.

Is Dry Needling safe? Absolutely. At Nordic Balance, our practitioners are highly trained and experienced in dry-needling techniques. We adhere to strict hygiene and safety protocols, ensuring your wellbeing is our top priority.

Is Dry Needling painful? You might feel a tiny prick when the needle is inserted, but most people find dry needling surprisingly comfortable. Some muscle soreness afterwards is normal, but it usually fades within a day or two. Our therapists are experts at making the experience as relaxing as possible.
