Clinical Trial Summary

the aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of Dry Needling Versus Instrumented Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization In the Patient With Cervicogenic Treatment Headache


Clinical Trial Description

Cervicogenic headache has been classified as a secondary type headache, and it is usually associated with cervical myofascial pain sources as myofascial trigger points . It also could be related to any joint, disc, and ligament disease of the upper region of the neck.physiotherapist use trigger point dry needling as an invasive treatment for CGH where a solid filament needle is inserted into a myofascial trigger point . The advantages of Dry needling are increasingly documented .Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization technique has been reported to decrease pain, improve overall function, and increase range of motion . It enhances the ability of physical therapists to detect altered tissue properties, through the vibration sense within the instrument, and to treat soft tissue dysfunction. It also enhances the patient's awareness of altered sensations within the treated tissues. ;
