Summary

The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of extracorporeal shockwave therapy on pain, neck range of motion, and functional activity in adolescent athletes.

Conditions

  • Myofascial Pain Syndrome

Interventions

OTHER

Designed physical therapy program

Both groups will receive a designed physical therapy program, in the form of myofascial trigger points pressure release, stretching of the upper trapezius muscle, strengthening exercises, and infrared radiation for 4 weeks.

OTHER

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT)

Adolescents of the experimental group will receive Extracorporeal shock wave therapy with the following parameters; low-level energy radial extracorporeal shock wave by (STORZ MEDICAL Master Pulse MP200), each subject received 3 sessions per week for 4 weeks with 700 impulse/session 400 impulse was applied to tight band and 300 impulses will be applied surrounding the tight band, with frequency \[10HZ\], resulting in positive energy flux density \[EFD\] 0.056mJ/mm.
