Filter by:Aim of the study To determine the comparative effects of muscle energy technique and strain counter strain in upper trapezius trigger point.
Background and purpose: Although wet cupping therapy (WCT) is in use, clinical investigations of its efficiency are scarce. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of wet cupping therapy (WCT) on fibromyalgia syndrome Methods: The patients will be randomized into two groups. WCT will be applied once a month to patients in the intervention group while the control group will be on standard therapy for fibromyalgia. An evaluation will be made before treatment and at the 3rd month using the Fibromyalgia Impact Survey (FEA), VAS, and EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D-3L) quality of life scale.
To improve self-care and therapy adherence by fibromyalgia (FM) patients through a nursing educational intervention. Historic diagnoses of subjects included terms such as "insane", "imaginary ill", "whiny"; as well, their physical conditions were underestimated by their immediate families. All subjects have problematic employment histories which consistently identified their varied employments as physically too demanding. Over time, increased physician- and societal-awareness, resulted in all subjects being diagnosed with FM; consequently, all subjects reported a strong desire to become well-informed about FM and its treatment. Although medical cannabis (MC) was an available therapy, twenty subjects reported that cannabis had never been proposed despite years of ineffective therapies. In this tudy the effects of a educational intervention by expert nurses on fibromyalgia and MC use were investigated.
PROSPER-FM is a multi-center, randomized, non-significant risk device study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two digital therapy smartphone applications in participants with fibromyalgia. Eligible participants are randomized (1:1) to either the Digital Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (Digital ACT) group or the Digital Symptom Tracker group and receive assigned therapy for 12 weeks.
Myofascial pain syndrome is a disease characterized by pain over the trigger point in a taut muscle band. After the correct diagnosis is made, many treatment methods can be applied. One of these treatments is the treatment with prolotherapy injection. Proliferant reveals defense mechanisms remove them and then start the healing process in the damaged area. Usually, dextrose water is used. Lidocaine is an anesthetic. With lidocaine injection, the passage of painful stimuli is prevented and the opioid system is activated. The aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of prolotherapy and lidocaine treatment in the myofascial pain syndrome.
This study focusing on sound therapy in patients with fibromyalgia is a single-centre, prospective, randomized study which evaluates the improvement or not of painful symptoms following relaxation sessions with sound therapy.
Participants between the ages of 18-64 who were diagnosed with cervical myofascial pain syndrome will be included in the study. cervical sagittal parameters, numerical pain rating scale, Bournemouth neck questionnaire and cervical range of motion will be measured and evaluated.
This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of infrared radiation in improving the various symptoms of fibromyalgia syndrome, by using a long-sleeved white shirt impregnated with a long-infrared irradiating bioceramic, as well as the adherence to it and its applicability in daily routines. A prospective, experimental, randomized, and double-blind study was carried. The study was implemented over 7 months, with a total of 5 visits for each patient. Participants were randomly allocated in experimental or control group. Those included in the experimental group received a shirt impregnated with ceramic emitting long infrared waves while participants in the placebo group received an exactly looking shirt, but not impregnated with ceramic emitting long infrared waves. Each visit comprised clinical evaluation and self-report scales filling (WPS, SS and FIQR scales).
The aim of our study is to examine the relationship between dual task and physical and psychosocial factors in female patients with fibromyalgia. We will perform Dual Task Test, 6 min Walking Test, the Baecke Habitual Physical Activity Questionnaire, Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory-20, Tracking Test, General Self-Efficacy Scale the Toronto Alexithymia Scale, the Revised FM Impact Questionnaire, the Social Support Scale.
This study looked after the effectiveness of radial ESWT on upper trapezius mtrps. There were three intervention groups which recieved either ESWT or standard care. VAS, PPT, Neck ROM and Cervical functionality were the main outcomes.
