Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS)

IMS treatment involves dry needling of affected areas of the body without injecting any substance. The needle sites are taut, tender muscle bands in the limbs or near the spine where the nerve root may have become irritated and supersensitive. Penetration of a normal muscle is painless; however, a shortened, supersensitive muscle will ‘grasp’ the needle in what can be described as a cramping sensation. The muscle then relaxes and becomes less senstive; and the nervous system also becomes less sensitised. The needle used in IMS, essentially becomes a specific and unique tool for both the diagnosis and treatment of neuropathic myofascial pain
