Brief Summary: The study aims to compare the effectiveness of myofascial trigger point treatment using pressure release versus a control group in patients with mechanical neck pain randomly assigned In both groups a protocol of therapeutic exercise and postural correction will be carried out
Detailed Description: With the present investigation it is wondered whether the choice of manual therapy techniques specifically the pressure release of myofascial trigger points in the upper trapezius and sternocleidomastoid muscles provide significant benefits in combination with therapeutic exercise and postural hygiene treatment group as opposed to the unique application of therapeutic exercise and postural hygiene control group thus constituting a treatment of choice in patients with mechanical neck pain

A treatment protocol of one session per week will be carried out and a follow-up two weeks after the end of the treatment protocol

If as postulated pressure release is more effective than the treatment received by the control group the choice of this type of technique for myofascial pain syndrome would benefit a high percentage of people who often come asking for treatment in pain treatment centers Pressure release provides a painless manual stimulus thus effectively resolving the symptomatology of myofascial trigger points without the need for invasive treatments or medication which may have more contraindications
