Dry Needling Physical Therapy (Baseball Pitcher!!)
ngl it kind of sucked when i had mine done in my calf area (also did electrical stimulation on them), but seriously, after it was over... wow! 100x better.. no joke.
does it hurt bro
@@sajeelfitness51 I got mine done on my jaw and it only hurts like 2 seconds really depending on how bad you have muscle tension there but once the pain is gone after the 2 seconds it’s amazing!
@@emilyemily6778 hey! I have tmj. Is this all cured for you?
@@17aiden yes! Well it really depends on the person tbh. I’ve heard from people that they’ve got it done once and never had pain again but have also heard from others they go frequently. Personally I get it done once on both sides of my face and won’t have to go for a few months. sometimes I can even go up to 6 or 7 months!
I do have to say, make sure you have the right person to do the needling and know what they are doing!
Acupuncture vs. Dry Needling
Acupuncture and dry needling are often confused with each other. Both procedures involve the insertion of needles into the skin. However, there are some important differences between these two procedures.
Acupuncture is a form of Traditional Chinese Medicine that has been used for over 3000 years. It is based on the belief that there is a life force energy, known as qi, that flows through the body. The goal of acupuncture is to restore balance to the body by correcting any imbalances in the flow of qi.
Dry needling is a relatively new procedure that has only been used for the past few decades. It is based on the Western medical model of anatomy and physiology. The goal of dry needling is to release muscle tension and trigger points. There are some similarities between acupuncture and dry needling.
However, there are also some important differences. Acupuncture is a holistic approach to medicine that looks at the whole person, not just the symptoms of the disease. Dry needling is a more targeted approach that focuses on specific muscle groups.

Bullshit
Its like the knock off brand
That must be so satisfying to have tight muscles needled
Yep
It hurts though
It hurts like a fucking bitch.
@@TheMostHighDaughter180 No it does not hurt
It hurts like a gun shot
I'm just gonna glove one hand and proceed to use th ungloved hand to touch everything I just attempted to clean. Smh
Honestly, the glove is just a precaution for the therapist more than anything else, in case one of the needles causes a little bleeding. Gloving one hand is not uncommon.
Superbly explained. Thank you ..
Thank you!
@@OverheadAthletics i want your contact no for studies
2:40, you found that leaving the needle in has more of an effect than just oscillating it? How did you find this? How did you determine an appropriate length of time? Was a double-blinded study conducted?
Great video brother 👍👍. I have a question ,i am having pain
Thanks for the comment!
@@OverheadAthletics sorry i left i comment half, bu i am having pain in my right shoulder and , right tigh , and i its been there for almost 3-4 years .now i am seeing psychio therapist which i did earlier and the pain only went away for the time i was seeing the psychotherapist after that it there .and now when i started gym i got worse man.This new psychiotherapist is saying to use needle therapy and laser but i have lost kind of all hope. Can you suggest anything ?
@@himanshugautam3224 consult physiotherapist.
Smoke a joint
@@drewodonnellMMA this might be the only life saving treatment that's going to work,i am going to try it . Really appreciated man 👍👍
I had it done the guy used one needle and twisted it so many times it was extremely painful and I am a person that has a high tolerance for pain had my legs done both upper and calfes my legs feel like Ive had severe cramps..the therapist said after 3 days I will have zero pain...Ive been having shockwave therapy with him..never had anything quite as painful though..he didnt leave needles in just kept twisting and twisting until eventually the unbearable pain started to ease then went to another part of my body took about 1 and a half hours..lets see
Mine was done in a similar way. My PT used about 5-6 needle points in my quad and did a lot of twisting and moving basically until I told him to stop because of pain was too intense. Couldn’t believe how much it hurt. I’ve had broken bones hurt less.
And did it worked?
Dude if you’re gonna glove one hand, glove the other one too. Don’t glove the hand that is going to touch the needle and then contaminate the persons skin that you just cleaned with your bare fingers. I would expect better than that from a professional.
🤨If u not a doctor please shut tf up
Jesus about to do this tmrw. I am desperate
I have hnp cervical, i do dry needling ,i want to ask, can my cervical health with dry needling?
🙏🙏Please ur information..
I got this done on my shoulders today
Did it help?
@@pteGmoney well, it feels like so. But I am doing some stretches as well.
Do gymnast person also have to do dry needling
No one has to do it lol
@@OverheadAthletics lol is right
Man.............. I don't know if I wanna do it now.
Haha it’s not painful
I heard that its very painful
Hello @overhead athletics
would this be a more extreme verision of trigger point therapy? For example, when i do trigger point, the best ive found so far unless i travel to the right person is laying on a baseball.
when i do this i twitch. also if its a high pain area the intense pressure will feel soo good and deep it will instantly put me to sleep for a few minutes.
is this similar to that? but more intense?
It is similar and different but seems to be more effective in trigger point reduction.
What’s the point of wearing one glove and not the other?
I m sorry but you don’t use the right length, plus your needles are too thick especially for the forearm area…
An other point, at the beginning you said that some paresthesia can be experienced with needling; it’s totally wrong, these need to be avoided, it would mean you re too close to neuro vascular structure…
Kind regards
Does dry-needling hurt? I’m getting it in a week on my leg. Kinda nervous
Some mild discomfort but no real pain because the needle is very thin!
I had it done today in my lower back and I felt enough pain to make my fist ball up
Depends, calves can be super intense with the twitch responses, other muscles you dont feel as sore.
@april Cerritos how it go??
Very true!
Sir i have problem in L5 -S1 nerve compression and most of the pain in both legs, unpainful paim toes plz guide me
Waiting for your kind revert
Thanks in advance😊
You should seek a skilled orthopedic physiotherapist or orthopedic surgeon!
can it help with shoulder impingement? had surgery already and 10000 hours of exercise and coaches.
It can certainly help with the pain aspect but won’t fix any mechanical problems. Typically it’s not the amount of exercise but rather the quality. I’d suggest finding a well respect shoulder physical therapist in your area.
I had it done for shoulder impingement and helped enormously with the improved range of movement and pain management.
Is it painfull?
Not really!
1:42 improve pain
Why did he rubbed alcohol bare hands then wear gloves
Oh man. Once you prep the area you do not touch it again, gloves or not 🤦♀️
Isn't this just acupuncture gentrification?
Nah. It's acupuncture with science instead of woo.
@@sosimple3585 in the future, please consider not using that term ("woo") as it has a pejorative and prejudiced background against East Asian people (I understand many people don't know of this origin, so please understand this comment is not meant to seem judgmental of you, but just to inform you in the future).
Acupuncture does not lack science! Early acupuncturists were not able to describe or explain our medicine in the terms we have today, or with the imaging technology we have available today - so they did their best to describe and explain things in their own terms, which is extraordinarily impressive when you think about their limitations, these terms can sometimes sound pseudo-scientific in today's world. But modern, and updated acupuncture clarifies what these terms actually meant and how they correspond to both anatomy and musculoskeletal function. We have pin-pointed countless precision-perfect techniques to give long lasting relief, and evidence-backed results!
Nope
This is exactly how dry needling should not be performed. Not if you want real pain relief from active myofascial trigger points
Doesnt even work
Looks a lot like simple accupuncture to me
Some similarities but the theory is very different
@@OverheadAthletics the theory is actually essentially the same, Acupuncturists have been needling trigger points for over 2,000+ years in almost all recorded texts. The twitch response is actually both ideal and necessary for a complete therapeutic response, this is a muscle reflex and it releases the taut bands of muscle tissue (this is referred to as a "De Qi" response, and is a required part of our needling), it's also necessary to needle perpendicularly to muscle fibers to guarantee a release - not along the length of the muscle. Fantastic job realizing to leave the needle in situ & use a rotation technique - this stimulates afferent fibers, brain center activity, and neuropeptide release (which is also a specific acupuncture technique found in every text since it's origin). If you're going to use "dry needling" (acupuncture) as part of your modalities - please refer to it as "dry needling & acupuncture" or just credit acupuncture for it's invention in your description (if there's legal restraints in your district) - because it's not it's own distinct therapy, it's an *isolated* acupuncture technique, and it's disingenuous and immoral to encourage a secondary narrative. Without imaging technology and scientific advancement early acupuncturists were not able to explain what we can explain today and were not able to write theory in the same way that we can today. They used different words to communicate exactly what we know of today as trigger point release. In the past 10+ decades (since the early to mid 1900's) acupuncture research and studies have been able to update modern acupuncture theory, technique, and understanding. We have recorded texts of this method's invention 2,000+ years before today, and a more standardized and modernized version of our ancient practice used today, any other field taking this technique as their own without credit is not being moral as a practitioner (and literally using acupuncture needles - bear in mind, when Travell and Simon's first attempted trigger points, it was performed with syringes, not with acupuncture needles, so it's unclear why other fields are now able to obtain acupuncture needles rather than syringes, but that's besides the point). If I copied and renamed Physical Therapy, Occupational therapy, or exercise medicine as my own therapy without credit, it would be just as wrong. Thanks in advance for reading and your considerations.
Yikes 😬
Lol what pseudoscientific bs
It's not it really works. I've had it done several times in my physical therapy.
@@coreydavis3063 I had dry needling done on my legs and it was amazing. After the first session my legs felt like they were going to knot up because the muscle tissue was so relaxed. They hadn’t felt that good in years. I’d honestly get it done once a week if I could afford it.
it is not pseudoscientific, medical acupuncture is covered by most major insurance, and is a thoroughly studied and well-understood modality, that gets fantastic results. It's chronically under-utilized in Western countries because of this population's lack of understanding and skepticism of non-western techniques. If you'd like to learn more search "sports medicine acupuncture", "medical acupuncture", or "modern acupuncture theory" to learn about how it works on both muscles, nerves, and fascia, as well as in several active centers of the brain.
@@peterjoseph1389 im a medical doctor and I have read up a lot on it. There is a reason why its not used to treat anything serious. And I dont give much to "sports medicine" since sportsmen does all kinds of crazy pseudo treatments like cupping etc
