Dry Needling Safety, Guidelines & Requirements
12 CE hours

Dr. Hayes teaches the requirements of Dry Needling including safety standards and issues, guidelines and requirements.

This course complements the Dry Needling Applications and Techniques course by giving you the necessary regulations and standards in the industry for performing dry needling.

Superficial Dry Needling is a treatment method for soft tissue that affects enthesis disruptions and trigger points that, when done correctly, offers immediate pain relief for your patient. 

This course will cover the safety of dry needling and the difference between dry needling and acupuncture, as well as ethical considerations for performing dry needling.  We will discuss pain theory and the specifics of how a dry needle works. 

Safety concerns as well as proper needle use and disposal will be emphasized. 

Demonstrations of safe and appropriate handling of needles, clean needle technique and the OSHA needle safety standard will result in the participant clearly understanding dry needling and when and when it should not be used.  The risks and potential complications of dry needling will be studied as well as how to identify potential adverse effects and how to manage emergencies.
