Clinical Trial Summary

To know the short-term effects of electric massage applied on the cervical region combined with local techniques on the temporomandibular joint versus an intervention that applies only local techniques in subjects diagnosed with temporomandibular disorders.


Clinical Trial Description

This study aims to know the short-term effects of electric massage applied to the cervical region combined with local techniques on the temporomandibular pain versus an intervention that applies only local techniques in subjects diagnosed with temporomandibular disorders. This is a prospective, controlled, single-blind clinical trial of 46 subjects randomly divided into two groups: Group 1 Manual Therapy=21; Group 2 Interferential massage plus Manual Therapy=25. Group 1 will receive manual therapy consisting of techniques of ischemic compression on masseter muscles and soft-tissue release technique over the temporal región. Group 2, in addition to the intervention in group 1, will receive electric massage with interferential currents at the cervical level. Pain related measures (Visual Analogue Scale oral, Pressure Pain Threshold (PPT)), vertical mouth opening as primary outcome measures and cervical range of motion as secondary outcomes were assessed. The assessments were made before the intervention, immediately after and after 4 weeks of follow-up. ;
