Brief Summary:
This study evaluates the deep dry needling technique as a percutaneous technique included in the professional field of physiotherapy
The project quantifies a significant limit on the number of local twitch responses necessary for the favorable treatment of myofascial pain and analyzes the injury degree andor the repair of myofascial tissue with Elastography

Detailed Description:
The myofascial shoulder pain caused by myofascial trigger points is one of the main causes of medical consultation and functional disability in the general population and particularly in the amateur athlete
Nowadays many physiotherapists all over the world study and practice the dry needling as a therapeutic tool for the treatment of myofascial trigger points The most used modality is the technique described by Hong
This technique introduces an acupuncture needle in the skin until reaching the dysfunctional muscle fiber To do so it uses maneuvers fast in and fast out of needle until the extinction of local twitch responses or the tolerance of the patient
The local twitch response is defined as a reflex and transitory contraction of a group of muscle fibers associated with a myofascial trigger points
The technique eliminates muscle contractile activity by mechanical interruption of their muscle fibers mechanism which finishes with the sensitization of nearby nerves and with the start of the nociceptive modulation peripheral segmental and central
The dry needling technique in its eagerness to obtain local twitch responses pierces the muscle fibers both dysfunctional and normal the fascial tissue that wraps the myofascial trigger points and also neuro-vascular structures That is the treatment of myofascial trigger points with dry needling makes reference to a mechanical trauma done with a acupuncture needle
The myofascial tissue injured can suffer repair or regeneration which is mainly due to the extension of the lesion The process of healing of a wound is strictly regulated by multiple growth factors and cytokines which are released into the wound The alterations that disturb the healing process can lead to chronic wounds that do not heal or to an excessive fibrosis
The pathobiological processes in form of fibrosis would present changes in stiffness and elasticity of the neo-tissue The quantitative elastography is shown as an effective tool to measure the amount of fibrosis occasioned by repeated percussion of the acupuncture needle on the myofascial tissue
