Cervical sagittal configuration aid in the management of myofascial trigger point |
Official scientific title |
Does improvement towards a normal cervical sagittal configuration aid in the management of myofascial trigger point pain of the neck: A 1- year randomized controlled trial |
Brief summary describing the background
and objectives of the trial
|
Despite the fact that there is some evidence of a link between myofascial pain and head posture, there is limited experimental data to support a cause-and-effect relationship and interventional outcomes. Accordingly, The present randomized controlled trial was undertaken to investigate the functional and pain response outcomes of denneroll cervical traction compared to standard care in patient cases with chronic myofascial pain syndrome , with a verified hypo-lordosis of the cervical spine. The primary hypothesis of this study was that cervical lordosis restoration will have short and long term effects on functional and pain outcomes in cervical myofascial pain syndrome patients.
