Medicina (Kaunas). 2022 Feb 9;58(2):256. doi: 10.3390/medicina58020256. ABSTRACT Background and Objectives: The objective of our clinical trial was to determine the effectiveness of the deep dry needling technique (DDN) (neuromuscular deprogramming) as a first step in the treatment of temporomandibular disorders. Methods and Materials: The double-blind randomized clinical trial comprised 36 patients meeting the inclusion […]
Biology (Basel). 2022 Feb 4;11(2):243. doi: 10.3390/biology11020243. ABSTRACT Our aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of dry needling (DN) combined with conventional physiotherapy in the recovery of patients with subacromial syndrome (SAS). A search was made of the main open access health science databases. The publication date was not limited for systematic reviews but was […]
Diagnostics (Basel). 2022 Jan 27;12(2):321. doi: 10.3390/diagnostics12020321. ABSTRACT The literature has hypothesized that a trigger point (TrP) area consists of a hyperperfused contracture knot with smaller hypoperfused TrPs within the contracture knot. By contrast, the only published ultrasound image of a TrP has it labeled hypoechoic (i.e., hyperperfused) with no commentary regarding smaller speckles of […]
Sci Rep. 2022 Feb 24;12(1):3188. doi: 10.1038/s41598-022-07063-0. ABSTRACT The purpose was to determine the efficacy of deep dry needling (DDN) applied on an active myofascial trigger point (MTrP) versus a latent-MTrP versus a non-MTrP location, on pain reduction and cervical disability, in patients with chronic neck pain. A randomized, double-blind clinical trial design was used. […]
