| Abstract: | Back ground and objective: Neck is the most common site of non- traumatic musculoskeletal pain, roughly two thirds of the general populations have neck pain at some time in their lives and the prevalence is highest in middle age. Trapezius pain is a classic example of stress pain and the most common musculoskeletal disorder which leads to long and serious disability. It is usually caused by placing too much stress or strain over the Trapezius muscle. The Upper Trapezius muscle is designated as Postural muscle and it is highly susceptible to overuse. Trapezius muscles help with the function of neck. Tightness in the muscles can decrease function of neck. Physiotherapy techniques like Dry Needling (DN) and Myofascial Release Technique (MFR) have been proposed as an adjunct to Conventional therapy to treat Trapezitis. Both the techniques have been proved on reducing Pain, improving and function which enhance the quality of life in subjects with Upper Trapezitis and literature is limited on their comparison. Hence need of the study arises. Methods: Quasi experimental study design. In this study, there were 80 subjects, clinical diagnosis of upper trapezitis, and who were divided into two groups at randomly. The subjects in Group A (n = 40) received Dry Needling (DN), while the subjects in Group B (n = 40) received Myofascial Release technique(MFR). Intervention was given to participants thrice a week for four weeks. The VAS for pain and the Neck Disability Index for function were used to assess the intervention’s effectiveness. Results: Independent ‘t’ test was used to compare the mean significance difference between continuous variables. Paired ‘t’ test was used to assess the statistical significance difference between pre and post test scores. Statistical analysis of this data revealed that, both groups significantly improved in both parameters when compared within groups, but when compared between groups, both the groups improved in reducing pain and increasing function. Conclusion: The study concludes that, after four weeks of intervention both groups that is the Dry needling and Myofascial release technique shows similar improvements in reducing pain and improving function in subjects with upper trapezitis. |
