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 practical course, and will fulfill written examination requirements for dry needling courses.
Course outline:
- historical overview
- the neurophysiology of superficial and deep dry needling
- ethics, precautions and contraindications
- dry needling for radicular pain
- clinical reasoning with the role of agonists and antagonists.
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
Good knowledge amazing dr thank you for your efforts
This course was very informative, and vital information prior to doing the practical portion of the dry needling
Good to do it again every couple of years
Enjoyed the evidence based practice of this course.
Everything was great my only complaint was that I found there was a lack of practice, only enough time to practice each area once. I would have liked to have more supervised practice
Clear and detailed explanation about dry needling - very useful and insightful... Read all the articles!
The content was well explained and it was helpful to look at the evidence for dry needling before completing the practical course.
