Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to compare the effects of localized vibration and dry needling applied to the trigger point in the individuals with acute myofascial pain syndrome.Pressure pain threshold (PPT) was used for the primary outcome measure of the study, and pain intensity, pain tolerance and short form (SF-36) were used for secondary outcome measures.
Detailed Description: The patients were divided into two groups as dry needling and localized vibration using the permuted block randomization method. The study was completed with 20 (17 women, 3 men) in the dry needling group and 20 in localized vibration (15 women, 5 men). In both applications, a total of 3 sessions were made to the patients at 1-day intervals.Patients' age, gender, duration of pain, localization, presence of additional disease, drug use were questioned and recorded. Pressure pain threshold (PPT) was used for the primary outcome measure of the study, and pain intensity, pain tolerance and short form (SF-36) were used for secondary outcome measures. All evaluation criteria except SF-36 were made before, immediately after and 1 day after each session, 1 week after the last session. SF-36 was evaluated before the 1st session treatment, after the 3rd session treatment and 1 week after the 3rd session treatment.
