简要总结
Participants will undergo an 8-week myofascial release (MFR) program consisting of therapist-administered MFR sessions (45 minutes, twice weekly) and self-myofascial release exercises (20 minutes, three times weekly). The interventions will target myofascial restrictions in the neck, shoulder, and related fascial structures to reduce pain and improve mobility.

研究组 & 干预措施
Myofascial Release Techniques Group
Participants will receive a 8-week myofascial release (MFR) program consisting of therapist-applied sessions twice weekly (45 minutes) targeting cervical and shoulder fascia, combined with a self-MFR home program three times per week (20 minutes) using massage balls. The aim is to reduce fascial restrictions and neck pain in violinists with non-specific neck pain.
干预措施: Myofascial Release Technique (Other)
Control Group
Participants will be young adult violinists aged 18-25 with similar professional violin experience and non-specific neck pain related to instrument playing. During the 8-week study period, they will not receive any manual therapy, exercise program, or specific neck treatment. They will be instructed to maintain their usual practice routines, ergonomics, and daily activities without modification and to avoid any additional physiotherapy interventions. Outcome assessments will be performed at baseline and at the end of the study.
