01

You can't learn needling on a screen

Palpation, depth control and patient response are physical skills. They're built with hands on tissue, not video playback.

02

The Resonance Needling difference

Electropoint stimulation and immediate movement retesting are built into every treatment cycle — not an optional add-on.

03

Evidence-based from the ground up

Every stage of the protocol traces back to published trigger point and electroacupuncture research.

04

Interprofessional by design

Acupuncturists, physiotherapists, chiropractors, osteopaths and massage therapists train side by side.

ASAP recommends a minimum of 12 hours face-to-face. No government regulation requires 20 hours.

What is Resonance Needling?

A protocol, not just a technique.

Resonance Needling integrates assessment, palpation, needling and targeted electrical stimulation into a single repeatable cycle — assessed and reassessed at every single point, every single time.

01

Assess

A movement test before every needle.

02

Palpate

The left hand never leaves the tissue.

03

Needle

Deep or Baldry superficial technique, matched to presentation.

04

Stimulate

Pointer Excel II electropen to the needle handle — a low-frequency phase until a rhythmic response, then a brief high-frequency phase, always with warning first.

05

Retest

Movement retested immediately after withdrawal.

About your instructor

Trained clinically. Teaching clinically.

Truth developed Resonance Needling from years of clinical practice at Ascend Acupuncture, where trigger point work sits alongside traditional Chinese medicine every day.

The protocol was built to solve a specific clinical problem: needling that produces a result the practitioner can feel and the patient can confirm, immediately, before they leave the table.

"The needle isn't the endpoint. The muscle answering back is."
