This 3-day, 20-hour seminar is designed to develop the knowledge and hands-on skills necessary to safely, effectively, and confidently implement dry needling for the treatment of musculoskeletal dysfunction of the upper and lower body.

This class will build on the practitioner’s existing needling skills, providing further instruction in palpation and advanced needling techniques to increase patient outcomes, increase safety and confidence, and reduce negative side-effects of dry needling.

The course emphasizes manual palpation to accurately identify target tissues and needling skills that improve the practitioner’s treatment outcomes.

A strong focus is placed on safety, including anatomical considerations, identification of contraindications, and risk management—particularly in anatomically sensitive and high-risk regions.

The in-person portion of the seminar prioritizes hands-on skill development, with a structured progression of lecture, demonstration, and supervised lab practice.

• Identify indications and contraindications for dry needling in patients with musculoskeletal dysfunction.
• Demonstrate safe needle placement techniques, including in anatomically sensitive and high-risk regions.
• Palpate, differentiate, and accurately target musculoskeletal tissues for dry needling intervention.
• Apply appropriate treatment dosing parameters to minimize post-treatment soreness and optimize patient outcomes.
• Identify and analyze risk factors and anatomical considerations associated with dry needling in high-risk regions.
• Demonstrate appropriate patient communication, informed consent, and safety procedures related to dry needling interventions.

Format: Lecture, demonstration, and supervised hands-on lab training.

Instructional methods include lecture, demonstration, and supervised hands-on lab practice. Participant competency is supported through ongoing instructor feedback during lab sessions.

Each lecture and demo section includes safety, palpation, and proper needling.

Each lab section includes supervised practice.
