Brief Summary:
The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential clinical benefits of Monopolar Capacitive Resistive Radio-frequency (448 kHz) (MCRR)F for the treatment of myofascial chronic neck pain.
Detailed Description:
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Setting: University community.
Patients with myofascial chronic neck pain with active MTrP in one upper trapezius muscle were involved. The patients were randomly divided into two groups: a radiofrequency group (RFG), who (14 patients) received 8 sessions of a monopolar capacitive resistive radiofrequency (MCRRF) application over the upper trapezius muscle and ten patients received 8 sessions of placebo radiofrequency (PG) over the same muscle. Main outcome measures: Visual analog scale (VAS), neck disability index (NDI) and cervical range of motion (pre-treatment, immediately post-first session treatment and post-treatment.
