Dry needling
Dry needling
Targeted treatment of tense muscles
Dry needling is a treatment method for tense muscles and painful muscle knots, also known as trigger points. These points can cause localised pain, but the pain can also radiate to another part of the body.
How does dry needling work?
During the treatment, the physiotherapist inserts a thin needle briefly into the affected muscle. This may cause a brief, involuntary contraction of the muscle. After the treatment, the treated area may feel temporarily tender, and movement may sometimes feel easier at first, but may also feel more difficult initially.
With dry needling, no fluid or medication is injected. That is also where the name dry needling vandaan komt.
Part of an active treatment programme
We use dry needling as a complementary treatment. We always take a holistic approach: where are your symptoms coming from, what factors are contributing to them, and what do you need to be able to move properly again?
That is why, where necessary, we combine dry needling with:
- Targeted exercise therapy
- Strength and mobility training
- Building up resilience
- Advice on exercise, work or sport

With personalised care, expert guidance and an approach tailored to your needs, we’ll help you move freely and with confidence once again.
Whether you’re struggling with an injury, suffering from long-term pain or want to improve your movement patterns, together we’ll identify the cause of your symptoms. My aim is not only to help you overcome your symptoms, but also to ensure that you can move freely, strongly and with confidence once again.
No two complaints or people are the same, and that is precisely what makes my work so interesting. I favour an active and goal-oriented approach. I’ll challenge you where I can and adapt the process where necessary. I won’t settle for a quick fix when there’s more that can be done.
Patients’ experiences
Curious to find out how others have found our care? Read the testimonials from patients who have worked on their recovery at B&B Fysio.
Rehabilitation following an accident
Rosalie is an extremely knowledgeable physiotherapist. She provided me with comprehensive support following a cruciate ligament tear. It’s clear that she really knows what she’s talking about. She’s great at challenging and motivating you with her enthusiasm (but she absolutely won’t let you do anything you’re not yet ready for).
Cruciate ligament rehabilitation
I underwent a course of rehabilitation with Rosalie following knee surgery. Not only did she provide excellent care, but she also made for a lovely, positive and personal experience. I felt seen and heard, and she always made sure that going back to see her was a real pleasure.

Following a serious accident, which left me with a shattered pelvis, I received the very best care and aftercare from Rosalie. I have never met a more dedicated physiotherapist. Hats off to her.
