Thanks Sheri. But that patient has since recovered and has been symptom free for months now.

I attended a course on "dry needling" in the interim, and that patient was one of my first trials. Of course the patient was recovering gradually with stretches and myofascial release, but a combination of piriformis needling and stretches did the trick in days. Amazing!

I would also recommend dry needling for all physiotherapists out there. It's quite a useful technique.
