Event description:

This course can be attended immediately upon completing the Dry Needling Plus Level 1, and is recommended for Level 1 attendees.

The Dry Needling Plus Level 2 course is a progression of assessment and treatment for Physiotherapists, Manual Therapists or Acupuncturists with formal training in Dry Needling or Acupuncture who wish to expand their knowledge and skills in the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. You will utilise five effective needling techniques not taught in any other Dry Needling course in Australia and their application into clinical practice. This approach addresses many of the limitations of established dry needling practice by differentiating between a variety of needling techniques and applying  them to specific changes identified in the tissue with skilled palpation and logical, range based physical assessment. Practitioners who have completed Traditional Acupuncture training and would like to integrate it further into manual therapy, and improve their musculoskeletal results will benefit from this course.

To be eligible to attend this course, the Dry Needling Plus Level 1, formal Dry Needlng Training or a Physiotherapy Traditional Acupuncture course (or equivalent) must have been completed.

This two day program is mostly practical, but includes some theoretical components of Dry Needling. You will learn five effective needling techniques not taught in any other Dry Needling course in Australia or New Zealand and their application into clinical practice.
