Its mix of established homes and easy transport links make it a convenient drive from our Sans Souci clinic for residents wanting hands-on allied health care.

Dry needling is a highly effective technique for releasing tight muscle knots (trigger points) that cause localised or referred pain. Using fine acupuncture needles, our trained physiotherapists and chiropractors target specific trigger points to release muscle tension, improve blood flow, and reduce pain. Dry needling is particularly effective for chronic muscle tension, sports injuries, and stubborn pain that hasn't responded to other treatments.

Dry Needling near Arncliffe — Questions Answered
Does dry needling hurt?+

Is dry needling the same as acupuncture?+

Many patients notice improvement within 1–3 sessions. Dry needling is often combined with physiotherapy or chiropractic for best results.
