How IDNETAG Supports Dry Needling Therapists
At IDNETAG, we are passionately committed to advancing the practice of dry needling therapy through the highest education and safety standards. Our mission is to support a global network of therapists, training providers, and educators who are united in their dedication to evidence-based practice and continuous learning. This commitment ensures that all dry needling professionals have access to the latest knowledge, skills, and safety protocols necessary for excellence in their field.
Comprehensive Education and Training
We support dry needling educators who adhere to the highest safety standards, ensuring they are equipped with the most up-to-date and rigorous training. Our educational initiatives empower educators to deliver comprehensive and safe training to therapists. This includes a focus on the latest techniques, anatomical knowledge, and best practices for patient safety. By providing resources and courses that emphasise safety and efficacy, we help educators instil these critical values in the next generation of dry needling professionals.
Safety and Best Practices
Safety in practice is a top priority for IDNETAG. We are committed to developing and disseminating safe guidelines for dry needling, particularly for muscles with important caution structures that should be considered. Our team of experts meticulously crafted these guidelines, including seasoned educators, practising therapist, physicians, and authors and researchers in the field of dry needling and myofascial pain and dysfunction. Our guidelines are continuously refined through Delphi studies, which involve sharing them with a broader community of dry needling experts to gather insights and consensus. This rigorous process ensures that our safety protocols are based on the latest evidence and expert consensus, providing a reliable foundation for safe and effective practice.
A Collaborative Community
At IDNETAG, we understand the importance of a supportive professional community. We strive to provide a collaborative environment where dry needling professionals and educators can share experiences, discuss challenges, and exchange knowledge. Our network fosters connections between therapists, educators, and training providers, creating mentorship, collaboration, and professional growth opportunities. Through forums, webinars, and conferences, we offer platforms for ongoing dialogue and learning, helping to elevate the practice of dry needling therapy worldwide.
