简要总结
108 myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) diagnosed patients will be randomly divided into 3 groups. To groups; exercise, exercise+high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) and exercise+dry needling will be applied. Visual anolog scale (VAS) scores and neck range of motion (ROM) of the patients before-after treatment will be recorded and will be evaluated statistically.
详细描述
Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is a very common disease in the population that seriously affects the quality of life. Although many modalities are used in its treatment, there is still no common protocol. In this study, the investigators aim to compare the effectiveness of high-intensity laser therapy (HILT), which has been popular in recent years, with exercise and dry needling options that have been used for years.
In our study 108 myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) diagnosed patients will be randomly divided into 3 groups. To groups; exercise, exercise+high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) and exercise+dry needling will be applied. Visual anolog scale (VAS) scores and neck range of motion (ROM) of the patients before-after treatment will be recorded and will be evaluated statistically.

结局指标
主要结局
Visual anolog scale (VAS)
时间窗: 10 seconds
A Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is a horizontal line, 100 mm in length measurement instrument that tries to measure the amount of pain that a patient feels ranges across a continuum from none to an extreme amount of pain.
次要结局
- neck range of motion (ROM)(3 minutes)
