Targeted Pain Relief for Tight Muscles and Chronic Conditions
Your Trusted Family Chiro in Mandurah
Dry needling involves inserting very fine, sterile needles into tight or irritated areas within the muscle known as myofascial trigger points. Unlike acupuncture, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine, dry needling is rooted in modern anatomy and neuroscience. Our chiropractors are trained in dry needling as a highly effective adjunct to soft tissue therapy and rehabilitation.
It works by:
- Releasing muscular trigger points
- Improving blood flow to the area
- Reducing local and referred pain
Stimulating a healing response
How We Use Dry Needling
At Mandurah Spine and Sport, our chiros use dry needling alongside other hands-on treatments and rehab exercises for best results. We often integrate it with:
- Manual therapy and joint mobilisation
- Soft tissue release or massage
- Exercise-based rehab or clinical Pilates
- Shockwave therapy(where indicated)
Treatments are tailored to your comfort level and goals—needling is always explained thoroughly and performed with care.

How often should my family visit a chiropractor?
The frequency of visits depends on individual needs, the condition being treated, and wellness goals. After an initial assessment, we’ll work with you to develop a personalised treatment plan. Many families benefit from periodic adjustments to maintain spinal health and prevent future discomfort, while some may require more frequent care for ongoing issues.
