Dry Needling & Acupuncture Birmingham
Fine single-use needles used into specific tight or sensitive muscle points, often alongside hands-on treatment.
What is acupuncture & dry needling?
Very fine sterile single-use needles are inserted into specific points in the muscle. Most people feel a dull ache or a brief twitch rather than sharp pain.
How can it help?
Hands-on treatment like this is most useful for everyday tightness, tension and the way your body responds to training and activity. It may help with:
- Stubborn tight or sensitive muscle points
- Areas that don't settle with massage alone
- Muscular tension around a specific joint or region
Treatment supports how your body feels and moves — it isn't a substitute for medical advice or diagnosis. If you're unsure, speak to George first.
Who is it for?
People comfortable with needles who have specific areas that keep returning. It is not suitable for everyone — George will check with you first and can use other options instead.
Common reasons people book this treatment
- A stubborn tight spot that won't settle
- Tension around a specific joint
- Muscle points that flare under load
- Areas that don't fully respond to massage
- Persistent localised tightness
What to expect
George explains exactly what he's doing and why before starting. Needles stay in for a short time, and you may feel a little tender the next day.
