Summary

The purpose of the study is to investigate the Synergistic Effects of the Integrated Neuromuscular Inhibition Technique and Dry Cupping Therapy on Pain Modulation and functional recovery on Myofascial Trigger Points of the upper trapezius

Conditions

  • Mechanical Neck Pain

Interventions

DEVICE

Dry Cupping Therapy

The patients receive dry cupping therapy for 10 min on the marked trigger point using a plastic set with a hand vacuum pump

OTHER

Integrated Neuromuscular Inhibition Technique

The patients receive the Integrated Neuromuscular Inhibition Technique, which consists of ischemic compression, strain-counterstrain, and muscle energy techniques.

OTHER

stretching and strengthening exercises

The patients receive stretching and strengthening exercises

OTHER
