Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Other	Pain pressure threshold	The minimum pressure that induces pain in trigger point. Higher scores mean better outcome.	Change from baseline Pain pressure threshold at immediately after intervention, Change from Baseline Pain pressure threshold at 1 week and Change from baseline Pain pressure threshold at 4 weeks
Primary	Change of Visual analog scale	Pain measurement Score from 0-10, 0 means no pain and 10 means maximum pain. Higher scores mean worse outcome.	Change from baseline Visual analog scale at immediately after intervention, Change from Baseline visual analog scale at 1 week and Change from baseline Visual analog scale at 4 weeks
Secondary	Neck disability index	Disability secondary to neck pain Score from 0-50, 0 means no disability and 50 means complete disability. Higher scores mean worse outcome.	Change from baseline Neck disability index at immediately after intervention, Change from Baseline Neck disability index at 1 week and Change from baseline Neck disability index at 4 weeks
