简要总结
Myofascial pain syndrome (MAS) is a syndrome characterized by muscle spasm, tenderness, limited range of motion, stiffness, fatigue and sometimes autonomic dysfunctions accompanying pain and pain caused by trigger points in the tense bands formed in the muscles The disease is diagnosed clinically and there are many pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches in treatment.
One of these treatments is dry needle therapy. Dry needling has been used for a long time in the treatment of myofascial pain syndrome.
Another treatment used in the treatment of myofascial pain syndrome is balneotherapy (spa treatment At Ahi Evran University Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Center, balneotherapy is frequently used in the treatment of patients with myofascial pain syndrome.
The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of dry needling and balneotherapy, which has been used in the treatment of myofascial pain syndrome for many years.

120 volunteers are planned to be included in this study. Patients will be randomly divided into 3 groups. (randomization will be done as 1: 1: 1 with a closed envelope). The patients in the first group will be given "dry needle treatment" for the aching muscle. No medication is used in this treatment.In this treatment, depending on the thickness of the adipose tissue under the skin, 13 mm, 25 mm or 30 mm long; 0.20 mm thick acupuncture needle is used. Dry needling will be done with painful trigger point and it will be waited for about 20 minutes. This treatment will be repeated once a week for 3 weeks.

结局指标
主要结局
Visual Analogue Scale
时间窗: Measurements will be made before treatment, at the 1st week after treatment and at the 3rd month after treatment. Then change of the level of pain will be investigated.
Pain level of the patients will be determined by "Visual Analogue Scale".
次要结局
- Kinesiophobia of the patients(Measurements will be made before treatment, at the 1st week after treatment and at the 3rd month after treatment. Then change of the level of kinesiophobia will be investigated.)
- Disability level of the patients(Measurements will be made before treatment, at the 1st week after treatment and at the 3rd month after treatment. Then change of the level of disablity will be investigated.)
- Mood of the patients(Measurements will be made before treatment, at the 1st week after treatment and at the 3rd month after treatment. Then change of the level of the mood of patients will be investigated.)
- Pressure pain threshold(Measurements will be made before treatment, at the 1st week after treatment and at the 3rd month after treatment. Then change of the level of pain pressure threshold will be investigated.)
- Quality of life of the patients(Measurements will be made before treatment, at the 1st week after treatment and at the 3rd month after treatment. Then change of the quality of life will be investigated.)
- Anxiety level of the patients(Measurements will be made before treatment, at the 1st week after treatment and at the 3rd month after treatment. Then change of the level of the anxiety will be investigated.)
