What does the title CGIMS mean?

3/6/2018

CGIMS is the designation for a doctor or physiotherapist who is certified in Gunn IMS

Dr. Gunn coined the term Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS) in his early papers in the 1970’s. His first dry needling courses were taught at the Institute for the Study and Treatment of Pain (iSTOP) and were simply called IMS. With changing times some American jurisdictions started using Dr. Gunn’s term when referring to all dry needling. Additionally, courses were popping up with components of their curriculum purporting to include ‘IMS’.
