Dry Needling in Brisbane
If you are looking for dry needling in Brisbane, Rise Chiropractic & Wellness in Albion offers professional dry needling treatments performed by our experienced practitioner, Dr Duanne Spiccia. Dry needling is a highly effective technique for relieving muscle pain, reducing tension, and accelerating recovery from injury — and at Rise Chiro, it can be combined with a chiropractic adjustment in the same appointment for a comprehensive, whole-body approach to your health.
Whether you are dealing with stubborn muscle tightness, chronic pain, sports injuries, or postural issues, dry needling may be the treatment you have been looking for. Our Brisbane clinic provides a calm, professional environment where your recovery is the priority.
What Is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a therapeutic technique that involves inserting fine, sterile needles into specific points within muscle tissue — known as trigger points — to release tension, reduce pain, and restore normal muscle function. Unlike acupuncture, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine principles, dry needling is grounded in Western anatomy and neuroscience.
When a needle is inserted into a trigger point, it causes a localised twitch response in the muscle. This response helps to release the contraction, improve blood flow to the area, and reduce the pain signals being sent to the brain. The result is often an immediate improvement in mobility and a significant reduction in pain.

How to Book a Dry Needling Appointment
Booking a dry needling appointment with Dr Duanne at our Brisbane clinic is straightforward. Please note the following before booking:
New Patients
If you have never visited Rise Chiropractic & Wellness before, you must book an Initial Consultation first. This allows Dr Duanne to assess your condition and confirm that dry needling is appropriate for you.
Existing Patients
If you are already a patient at Rise Chiro, you can book a Standard Appointment with Dr Duanne and request dry needling at the time of booking or when you arrive.
Book Specifically with Dr Duanne
Dry needling is only performed by Dr Duanne. When booking online, make sure you select Dr Duanne Spiccia as your practitioner — it is not available with other practitioners at the clinic.
Dry Needling + Chiropractic Adjustment
Your dry needling appointment can also include a chiropractic adjustment if you would like one — at no extra consultation cost. Combining both therapies in a single visit means you get the muscle release benefits of dry needling alongside the spinal and joint benefits of chiropractic care. Just let Dr Duanne know when you arrive.

Rise Chiropractic & Wellness is located in Albion and serves patients from across Brisbane's inner north, including Bowen Hills, Newstead, Windsor, Lutwyche, Kedron, and Fortitude Valley. We offer a whole-person, wellness-based approach to care — and dry needling is a powerful addition to that philosophy.
What sets our dry needling service apart is the ability to combine it with chiropractic care in the same appointment. While dry needling addresses the muscular component of your pain, a chiropractic adjustment addresses the spinal and joint component — giving you a more complete treatment outcome than either therapy alone.
Dr Duanne takes the time to assess your individual presentation and tailor the treatment to what your body actually needs on the day. If you are dealing with back pain, neck pain, shoulder tension, or sports injuries and want a results-driven approach to recovery, dry needling with Dr Duanne may be exactly what you need.
