ADVANCED ACUPUNCTURE COURSE 242:

Electro-Acupuncture & Dry Needling

Master evidence based electro needling techniques that accelerate healing,
control pain, and expand your therapeutic reach—all in one comprehensive course.

Turn every needle into a high performance clinical tool that delivers measurable results—fast.

You already know the power of a single needle; now imagine that power amplified by precisely dosed electrical stimulation. In this hands‑on program, you’ll learn how Electro Dry Needling & Acupuncture (EDNA) merges the proven analgesic effects of manual acupuncture with the tissue‑repair benefits of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS). You’ll discover why continued electrical stimulus outperforms manual manipulation, how to choose frequencies that release specific opioid peptides for superior pain relief, and the exact protocols that have helped clinicians resolve everything from low‑back pain to stubborn tendinopathies in fewer visits. By the end, you’ll wield a versatile modality that not only relieves pain but also boosts circulation, modulates inflammation, and accelerates tissue regeneration—giving your patients faster, longer‑lasting results and setting your practice apart. 


See your patients walk out pain free—in half the time.

EDNA’s targeted electrical currents trigger the body’s own endorphins, optimize neuromuscular function, and jump start collagen remodeling—so recovery happens quicker and visits drop. Your schedule stays full, your outcomes soar, and your patients become your biggest advocates.

Here's What You'll Learn

Build the clinical know how to deliver safe, outcome driven electro needling that elevates every facet of patient care.

Protocol Mastery

Apply low and high frequency EDNA settings to release specific opioid peptides, achieve rapid analgesia, and avoid neural adaptation.

Condition Focused Application

Integrate cross pattern and layering techniques for common MSK and neuropathic conditions—low back pain, rotator cuff tears, Achilles tendinopathy, and more.

Safety & Contraindications

Identify implants, pregnancy stages, sensory deficits, and other red flags to keep treatments effective and risk free.

Tissue Healing Science

Leverage EDNA’s ability to up regulate collagen synthesis, improve microvascular supply, and modulate immune response for faster recovery.

Precision Needle Placement

Employ evidence based point selection—myotendinous, periosteal, and segmental—to maximize therapeutic currents while minimizing discomfort.

Aftercare & Outcome Tracking

Deliver post treatment guidance that minimizes soreness, monitors progress, and documents measurable functional gains.
