Brief Description | Dry Needling Level 1 in Toronto, November 2024 Dry Needling training and certification starts with Acupuncture Canada’s Dry Needling Level 1 (DN1) course. Dry Needling Level 1 presents the concepts and theories regarding myofascial trigger points and the mechanism of action of dry needling from a clinical and evidence-informed approach. A selection of common conditions will be addressed with skills applications of selected muscles. Safety guidelines are emphasized throughout. Using the trigger point approach, Dry Needling Level 1 addresses treatment of conditions including: strain of hip flexors, rotators, piriformis syndrome, hamstring strain, Achille’s tendinitis, strain from immobilization in casts, posterior rotator cuff, ankle strain/sprain, shin splints, and knee strain. The DN1 course starts with a 3-week online study component, including videos, narrated PPTs, quizzes and case management plans. Online study is followed by a 3-day intensive in-person component where students work in small groups with experienced instructors, to learn safe, effective needling techniques. You will be able to start simple treatment of pain problems, with an emphasis on musculoskeletal pain, within your scope of practice. Fall course will be held:
