Dry Needling
Dry Needling
- Are you worried about pain that doesn’t go away no matter what you do?
- Are you frustrated that other treatments haven’t worked?
- Are you having trouble keeping up with the life you want to live and are missing out on being active again?
- Are you still looking for a long-term solution so you can get back to doing the things you love?
If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, you are in the right place!
You see, many people in Chislehurst and Dulwich suffer unnecessarily with pain and stiffness because they’re told…
- Just do a few exercises on this piece of paper and you’ll be fine (then months later they’re still suffering…)
- It’s “normal” with (lifestyle, aging) to have knee, back, or hip pain.
- Drugs or surgery are the only options.
- Surgery is the only option (and you can’t get in to have the surgery for a while)
The Truth Is...
- A few exercises on a piece of paper often doesn’t change anything. You might get a small temporary relief, but then when you get active again you’ll still be suffering from the same pain (I bet you’ve already experienced it!)
- It’s not normal to get pain and stiffness as you get older!
- Drugs and surgery are not the only option. It’s just the only option your doctor can offer you.
Are You Looking for a Natural Solution for your Aches and Pains?
Here's 3 things you can do:
1. Make a decision about getting help.
2. Avoid taking painkillers or strong medications.
If you’ve been suffering with joint pain chances are you’re been given lots of medications, and maybe even injections or surgery. All of these medications just hide the pain, they don’t actually fix what’s going on, so the pain continues anytime the medications stop. These prescriptions aren’t good for your long-term health. It would really help to try a natural solution, like Dry Needling, which has helped so many people just like you when their healing process halts and they’re stuck with constant pain.

What Other People Just Like You Are Saying About Advanced Physiotherapy in Chislehurst & Dulwich...
Isolde, Sevenoaks: Avoided back surgery for sciatica pain.
I injured my back lifting weights (under the guidance of a personal trainer!) and I was luckily referred to Chris by a friend after developing excruciating sciatica. Prior to seeing Chris I had seen another physiotherapist and also an osteopath for probably over a year for my issues with my ankles, knees and hips. During that time I had a clicking noise coming from my back which the osteopath I was seeing at that time told me was “normal”. Unfortunately I only found out from Chris, after sustaining my back injury, that this was already a warning sign that there was already a problem and most likely my issues with knees, and hips came from the problem with my spine and my underlying hypermobility which no-one had mentioned before. I had an MRI scan a few weeks after I started with Chris which confirmed a disc prolapse. Due to the severity of my back injury the specialists did not give me any hope that any conservative treatment could work and kept saying surgery was my only option which added to my anxiety at that time. I decided against the surgery and continued on with treatments from Chris.
Since I came to see Chris for my back injury my life has really changed. Initially I was unable to do much other than lie down and I even had to travel to the clinic lying in the back of a taxi! Now I can lead a normal life and I value the support (and the dry-needling!) from Chris in this difficult time. It gave me hope as I was seeing improvements and I felt also empowered as I learned how to best move or what exercises to do to strengthen my body. About a year after my injury I had another MRI scan done. The doctor as well as the NHS physiotherapist who saw both my MRI scans congratulated me for having managed to heal without surgery.
Anyone out there skeptical about physical therapy I would suggest to give it a try and to have patience. I do believe that injuries happen often over a longer period of time so it will take some time to change and learn healthier ways but only like this will you truly be able to stay healthy and prevent further injuries. Thank you Chris for helping me find my health again!
