简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine the immediate effect of the suboccipital release technique on trapezius muscle pain threshold, muscle activation, and anxiety level in individuals with anxiety.Thirty-six people with anxiety symptoms were included in the study. These people were divided into two groups, 18 control group and 18 treatment group. Upper trapezius muscle pain threshold, muscle activation and anxiety levels were evaluated. The experimental group received a single session of suboccipital release technique. The control group received a single session of sham suboccipital release. The evaluations were performed before and immediately after the treatment.The suboccipital release technique can increase the trapezius muscle upper part pain threshold and concentric muscle activation immediately after the application in individuals with anxiety.

结局指标
主要结局
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale
时间窗: Baseline
Toplam 14 maddeden oluşan (/ Anksiyete ve 7 Depresyon sorusu). 4'lü Likert tipinde bir ölçektir. 0-3 arasında bir puanlama yapılırç 0-1 puan hasta olmayan, 2 puan sınırda hasta, 2-3 puan ağır hasta olarak değerlendirilir.
Pain Assessment
时间窗: Change from Baseline anxiety level at Immediately After treatment
Pain threshold was evaluated with a manual algometer device. The midpoint of the upper trapezius muscle and the tender point with the highest pain were marked.
Surface Electromyography Measurements
时间窗: Change from Baseline anxiety level at Immediately After treatment
Maximum Voluntary Concentration (MVC) value was then measured. For the MVC value, individuals were asked to push their shoulders up (in the upward direction) against a manual resistance for 5 seconds. The measurement was repeated 3 times and 2 rests were taken after each measurement. The highest of the values was used for normalization. Afterwards, the subjects were asked to perform active shoulder elevation (concentric activity) for 3 seconds and return to neutral position for 3 seconds with the metronome. For normalization, % MVC and function % MVC values were calculated using the values recorded for all recordings.
The State- Trait Anxiety Inventory
时间窗: Change from Baseline Anxiety Level at immediately after treatment
The State Anxiety Scale includes questions that require the respondent to answer by taking into account his/her current feelings, while the Trait Anxiety Scale includes questions that evaluate how the respondent feels in general. It is a 4-point Likert scale. The total score obtained from both scales is minimum 20 and maximum 80. A high score indicates a high level of anxiety and a low score indicates a low level of anxiety.
次要结局
- Cranial Rhythm(Change from Baseline anxiety level at Immediately After treatment)
