Neha Gupta, Naman Jindal, Gautam Gupta
Abstract :
A total of 30 participants were divided into two groups; ESWT group (n=15) and DNT group (n=15). Participants received one session of DNT and ESWT (2500–3000 shocks) and outcome variables were recorded before, immediately after, and after 48 hours, 72 hours and 1 week of treatment session. The results showed a significant improvement in pain, range of motion, function and pressure pain threshold which were measured using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), a standard goniometer, Neck Disability Index (NDI) and F–meter between the two groups. The study helped to find out that both the therapies have a significant effect on muscle trigger point after a single session but ESWT showed faster and optimal results.
