Red Light Therapy has grown dramatically in recent years because of its ability to optimize cellular function, resulting in expediting healing. Combining red light therapy with dry needling can be a game changer for a variety of injuries when applied properly.
Here, we will explore the specifics of this powerful combination.

Combining electrical stimulation with dry needling can be a very potent technique for down regulating pain in many patients. These techniques can be used as both a progression and a regression with our overall treatment approach. Unfortunately, there is limited information available on the proper parameters with e-stim and dry needling, so we will be discussing best practices as we currently understand them.

Mobility is primarily a nervous system response whereas the human body doesn’t tolerate a stretching sensation. When applied properly, dry needling is a great tool for downregulating tone in the nervous system, thus improving range of motion. This session will present options to improve mobility with dry needling.

Have you ever wondered if you should perform stability/motor control exercises in conjunction with dry needling? When should we consider this combo? Which should be performed first and why? These and other questions related to stability training and dry needling will be discussed in depth in this powerful course.

BFR training has proven to be extremely useful for rehab and sports medicine applications because of the associated hormonal changes, pain mitigation properties and impacts on the nervous system. While not traditionally performed together, using dry needling in collaboration with BFR can offer unique outcomes to improve patient
outcomes.
