IMS Dry Needling, or Intramuscular Stimulation, is a specialized treatment designed to relieve pain and muscle tension by targeting tight, irritable areas known as trigger points. Using fine needles, our trained physiotherapists at Recovr Physiotherapy insert them directly into these trigger points to release tight muscles, promote blood flow, and stimulate your body’s natural healing response. This therapy is highly effective for treating chronic pain, muscle tension, and nerve-related issues, particularly for conditions like sciatica, back pain, and tension headaches. IMS Dry Needling is a powerful way to restore function, reduce discomfort, and help you move with greater ease and flexibility.
“I have been to several physiotherapist in the past but this is by far the best. Ritesh’s explanation and treatment of my hip pain was exceptional. After two treatment sessions I am back to normal.”
“Altogether organized and knowledgeable staff. I attend physio with Saravanan and he always fully listens to the issue and how the issue arises and explanation of the muscles/tension/pain. Great place to go for first timers and so easy to book online!”
“I highly recommend Dr. Ritesh, my physiotherapist, for anyone dealing with muscle pain. After less than a month of sessions for my right thigh muscle pain, I’m back to normal.
“I had an accident 6 month ago, and i’ve been getting treatment ever since, i was in a lot of pain and discomfort but thanks to ritesh i have been seeing such great improvement in my body and muscles, i highly recommend this clinic for recovery”
“I injured my knee and had been to a couple different physiotherapists with little improvement for a few months so I decided to try Recovr. It proved to be the right decision. Ritesh diagnosed the injury right away“
IMS dry needling works by inserting needles into trigger points in the muscles. This stimulates the body’s natural healing process, which helps to reduce pain and inflammation.
IMS is a technique that is based on Western medical principles, while acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine practice. IMS focuses on treating muscle and nerve pain, while acupuncture aims to balance the flow of energy throughout the body.
The needles used in IMS dry needling are very thin and most people only feel a slight prick or no sensation at all.
IMS dry needling can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including chronic pain, headaches, muscle spasms, tendonitis, and more.
