ODNS teaches an integrated approach to Trigger point needling and pathology, providing the student with a thorough understanding of the MTrP and how it is affected by Dry Needling. This online theory of needling course is designed to be completed before attending the 2-day intensive practical In-Person training course.
The online course is presented in combination videos and articles and includes exam questions for each section. This online portion must be completed before the ODNS Level 2 practical course, and will fulfill written examination requirements for dry needling courses.
Course outline:
- Tensegrity and it’s significance to dry needling
- Applications of EStim with dry needling
- Adverse events
- Nutritional considerations
- TMJ Dysfunction
Please note: that by completing these online courses in isolation without attending the 2 Day In-Person Practical courses does not give you a Dry Needling Qualification and does not qualify you to practice dry needling.

Ratings and Reviews
Enjoyed the articles and the power points. Well presented. Would have loved to see more information on the tensegrity component that was in the outlines. At the end, I felt those were lacking.
All my expectations were met and the articles attached were very unteresting
Much like the online component of the Dry Needling Level 1 course, this one was just as insightful! I learned a lot!
Great skill to have in your skill set
Very informative and challenges your perspective on needling.
Really enjoyed this course! It was a lot of information in a short space of time so would definitely recommend taking the Monday off after the course. Bruce and Lara were excellent. Would have liked to have some Anatomy recap in the notes per area though and would have liked to have more time for practical sessions as some of us didnt get a chance to practice everything.
I enjoyed the section on nutritional impact on myofascial TrPs. My expectations were exceeded. It was very interesting.
