Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Dry needling
Total 12 sessions of trigger point dry needling at lumbar muscles with Hot pack,with 3 sessions per week
Dry needling
A filiform needle is inserted at 45 degree in to trigger point and then twirl the needle up and down to release trigger point
Heat therapy
Hydro collator pack will be placed on affected area for relaxation and pain relief for 15 min
manual pressure release
Hot pack for 15 min then manual pressure release
Manual pressure release
lengthens the muscle up to the increasing resistance, then gradually applies gentle pressure on MTrp until fingers feels a definite increase in tissue resistance (first barrier). Pressure would maintain until clinician sense relief of tension
Heat therapy
Hydro collator pack will be placed on affected area for relaxation and pain relief for 15 min
