No results posted yet for this study

Summary

the purpose of this trial is to compare the effectiveness of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization and high power pain threshold ultrasound on pain intensity, pressure pain threshold (PPT), neck range of motion, and neck function in participants with upper trapezius myofascial trigger points.

Conditions

  • Myofascial Pain Syndrome of Neck

Interventions

DEVICE

Instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization ( IASTM ) and Ultrasound

Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) is a popular treatment for the myofascial limitation that is based on James Cyriax's rationale. High-power pain threshold ultrasound is a noninvasive approach used in myofascial pain syndrome ( MPS) treatment, and it has no serious adverse effects.
