Article Synopsis
- * The patient underwent three sessions of DN targeting trigger points in the levator scapulae muscle, resulting in complete symptom resolution by the end of treatment and at a six-month follow-up.
- * The findings suggest that incorporating DN into a multi-modal treatment plan may enhance the management of work-related CTTH associated with LSS, despite limited current evidence supporting DN.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of adding electrical dry needling and thrust manipulation into a multimodal program of exercise, mobilization, and ultrasound in patients with lateral elbow tendinopathy.
Design: Randomized, single-blinded, multicenter, parallel-group trial.
Setting: Thirteen outpatient physical therapy clinics in nine different US states.
Background Context: Nonoperative management of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) includes activity modification, medication, injections, and physical therapy. Conventional physical therapy includes a multimodal approach of exercise, manual therapy, and electro-thermal modalities. There is a paucity of evidence supporting the use of spinal manipulation and dry needling as an adjunct to conventional physical therapy in patients with LSS.
