入选标准

  • Presence of a palpable taut band in muscle.
  • Presence of a hypersensitive tender spot in the taut band.
  • Reproduction of the typical referred pain pattern of the MTP in response to compression. To detect active TrPs, TrP pressure tolerance was assessed using a mechanical pressure algometer. The investigator applied continuous pressure with the algometer with an approximate pressure of 2.5 kg/cm
  • Spontaneous presence of the typical referred pain pattern and/or patient recognition of the referred pain as familiar.
  • 5- Pain of at least 30 mm on a visual analogue scale (VAS). The selected MTP of the UT muscle was located in the middle of the more nearly horizontal fibers of the UT 40.

排除标准

  • had a history of fibromyalgia syndrome, whiplash injury, cervical spine surgery and fracture, cervical radiculopathy, having therapy within the past month before the study
  • any systematic disease such as rheumatism and tuberculosis or cervical myelopathy, multiple sclerosis
  • local infection,
  • pregnancy
