Experience fast, effective relief with dry needling in Berwick from Tracey Chappell of Spectrum Myotherapy Clinic. Ease neck and shoulder pain today.
Neck and shoulder pain are common issues caused by long hours at a desk, poor posture, and everyday stress. For those in Berwick seeking real relief, dry needling offers a safe and effective solution. With Tracey Chappell of Spectrum Myotherapy, this technique helps release muscle tension, reduce pain, and restore natural movement so you can get back to feeling your best.
What Are the Causes of Neck and Shoulder Pain
• Muscle Tension and Poor Posture – Prolonged sitting, especially with poor ergonomics, often leads to tension in the neck and shoulder muscles. Over time, this can cause stiffness, pain, and reduced mobility. Poor posture while using a computer or mobile device can also strain the upper back and neck muscles.
• Stress and Emotional Tension – Emotional or mental stress frequently manifests physically in the neck and shoulders. When under stress, muscles in these regions tend to contract, leading to persistent discomfort or even tension headaches.
• Repetitive Movements and Overuse – Jobs or activities that involve repetitive lifting, typing, or awkward arm positions can result in overuse injuries. These repetitive actions can create muscular imbalances, inflammation, and pain.
• Underlying Musculoskeletal Conditions – Conditions such as cervical spondylosis, shoulder impingement, or muscle strain can further contribute to ongoing discomfort. In such cases, targeted therapy such as myotherapy and dry needling can help address both the symptoms and the root cause of pain.
What Is “Dry Needling” and How It Works
Dry needling is a specialised technique used by qualified myotherapists to treat muscular pain and dysfunction. It involves the insertion of fine, sterile needles into specific trigger points within the muscle tissue. These trigger points, often referred to as “knots,” can cause local pain, tightness, and restricted movement.
It works by stimulating specific trigger points to increase blood flow, release muscle tension, and activate the body’s natural healing response. This evidence-based technique targets overactive muscle fibres to reduce inflammation and restore proper tissue function. With Tracey, each treatment is customised to your individual needs, ensuring safe and effective pain relief.
Benefits of Dry Needling for Neck & Shoulder Pain
Many clients experience noticeable relief after just a few sessions of dry needling. It offers a practical, non-invasive solution for addressing both acute and chronic neck and shoulder pain. When performed by an experienced practitioner like Tracey, this treatment can deliver the following benefits:
• Faster relief of muscular tension and trigger-point pain
• Improved range of motion in neck and shoulders
• Reduced headache frequency or shoulder/neck stiffness
• A more integrated recovery plan (through myotherapy) rather than just treating symptoms
Including dry needling in a myotherapy program promotes long-term wellness by easing pain, correcting muscle issues, and improving posture and mobility.
