Summary

The goal of this observational study is to investigate the efficacy of percutaneous electrolysis compared with dry needling on pain sensations and multifidus muscle properties in subjects with low back pain. The main questions it aims to answer are:

The high-intensity and low-intensity percutaneous electrolysis may induce pressure pain threshold (PPT) changes in myofascial trigger points in the low back during the intervention compared with dry needling.

Percutaneous electrolysis interventions may reduce stiffness in the multifidus muscle during the intervention compared with dry needling.
