Since the publication of the first edition in 2013, the utilization of dry needling in clinical practice has expanded dramatically throughout the world. Indeed, more and more professionals have been using dry needling to effectively reducing acute and chronic pain, as well as improving motor performance, range of motion, and strength.Following the success of the previous edition, the updated Trigger Point Dry Needling: An Evidence and Clinical-Based Approach remains the first authoritative guide on the market.With a completely revised text and now full colour illustrations, it provides excellent clarity within content and images for even more uniform and consistent instructions on the needling techniques.Written and edited by a group of international experts, this is the most-up-to-date resource for physiotherapists, chiropractors, myotherapists, and other professionals as physicians, acupuncturists, osteopaths and athletic trainers.

Clinical Handbook of Myofascial Pain aims to fill a void in the current myofascial pain literature. It will provide clinicians with a comprehensive problem-solving handbook that can be used for patients with a variety of pain problems. It provides a new introduction to integrating pain sciences into manual therapy practice. The book is divided in different sections based on region (head/neck/face) and associated pathology and dysfunction (i.e. headaches, low back pain, etc.). This will assist clinicians to quickly consult the publication especially for more complex patient presentations. The publication will give very practical options to better manage patients using a combination of manual therapy approaches, dry needling, and education. For the first time, dry needling and injection approaches will be verified and better supported with high quality sonography images.The book will provide a practical clinical reference for all those practitioners working with patients with myofascial pain. These include physical therapists, massage therapists, body workers, chiropractors, occupational therapists, athletic trainers, neuromuscular therapists, Rolfers, perhaps some physicians. It is suitable for use by those studying on myofascial pain courses, for general technique reference, at schools, and in clinical practice.
