What is GUN ims-dry-needling?

Gunn IMS is a whole body system for the diagnosis and treatment of persistent myofascial pain syndromes including muscle, joint, tendon, bursal, fascial, neural and biomechanical problems.

The approach, which uses intramuscular dry needling, is based on the neuropathic dysfunction model developed by the world renowned Dr Chan Gunn out of the University of British Columbia. This model looks at the whole body, not just isolated areas of pain, and considers dysfunction in the nervous system as the cause of persistent myofascial dysfunction and pain.

Through the use of dry needling, the treatment aims to neutralize trigger points (i.e. tight muscle bands) throughout the body and restore normal nervous system function which helps to alleviate pain and improve movement capabilities.
