EM Sports Therapy

✨ Dry Needling CPD ✨

Last week I headed to Edinburgh to complete further CPD training in Dry Needling 🪡

It was a great weekend of hands-on learning, developing my practical skills and expanding my knowledge of how dry needling can be used alongside other sports therapy and rehabilitation techniques.

Some potential benefits include:
🪡 Helping to release muscle tension
🪡 Reducing pain and discomfort
🪡 Helping to deactivate myofascial trigger points
🪡 Improving range of movement and muscle function
🪡 Supporting rehabilitation and recovery
🪡 Complementing other manual therapy techniques

I’m really looking forward to continuing to build on these skills and hopefully incorporating dry needling into EM Sports Therapy in the future, as part of an individualised treatment and rehabilitation approach. 🤍

Great weekend training with OMT in dry needling! Super excited to have qualified and added this to my skill set 😀🪡

Another fantastic Level 1 Medical Acupuncture course completed in Edinburgh, Scotland!

Two full days of practical, hands-on training with OMT instructor Jayne Ritchie, working with a brilliant group of students from across Scotland.

Great learning, great atmosphere and plenty of hands-on practice throughout the weekend.

Students leave with full certification, plus 12 months of continued access to our online training platform for ongoing education, revision and support after the face-to-face course.

If you’ve been thinking about adding Medical Acupuncture to your clinical skillset, when are you going to upskill?

Keep an eye on our upcoming course dates and take the next step in your professional development.
