Who is Sue Falsone and What is Dry Needling?

[shaker_image]Using the technique of dry needling, a licensed physical therapist uses his skill with dry needles to penetrate the epidermis and stimulate the muscles of the athlete. Sue Falsone, the founder and CEO of Structure and Function Dry Needling, launched a practical dry needling approach that is called SFDN, the namesake of her organization! Over the course of the decade in the business, Sue acquired a great amount of expertise which she used to develop her dry needling approach. As a true pioneer in her field, Sue was Head Athletic Coach for the Los Angeles Dodgers, which made her the very first woman in the role of Head Athletic Coach in the four major sports in the US. The the United States Men’s National Soccer team also perceived her skills and gave her the job of Head Athletic Trainer.

Course Curriculum

The course was designed for the clinician:

  • to master safe acupuncture needle handling practices, and avoid possible blood borne diseases;
  • to understand the surface anatomy of the patient in terms of his safety when using acupuncture needles;
  • to utilize intramuscular stimulation when curing different sports-related pathologies; and become proficient when using vacuum therapy techniques.
  • to be certain the clinician is acquainted with the contraindications and safeguards regarding dry needling;
  • to teach the students to employ dry needling techniques when addressing various orthopedic and sports-related injuries;

When the course is finished, the practitioners will be confident enough to use their newfound abilities in order to treat varying problems and issues in orthopedic and sports medicine.
