This study tested a new treatment for mild to moderate acne that uses ultrasound waves to help push a sugar-water solution deeper into the skin. The goal was to see if this method could reduce inflammation and improve acne symptoms. The trial involved 115 young adults aged 18-30 …

This study tested whether two different types of core muscle training could improve lung function in heavy smokers. Researchers compared static (isometric) exercises to dynamic (isotonic) exercises in 90 participants. The goal was to see which method was more effective at helping…

This study tested whether a traditional Chinese breathing exercise called Liuzijue, performed in water, could help children with lupus. It aimed to see if this gentle exercise could improve their heart and lung fitness and bone health. The trial involved 130 children and teenager…

This study tested a 12-week rehabilitation program for people with severe burns around their upper arm. It combined two therapies: 'Russian current' electrical stimulation to strengthen muscles and 'muscle energy techniques,' a type of stretching, to improve movement. The goal wa…

This study tested whether a gentle exercise method called Gyrokinesis could help reduce cancer-related fatigue in childhood brain tumor survivors. It involved 80 participants who had finished treatment at least a year prior. Researchers measured changes in fatigue levels, walking…

This study tested whether adding a technique called 'tissue flossing' to standard physical therapy helps women recover from a painful shoulder condition that can occur after breast cancer surgery. Tissue flossing involves wrapping a stretchy band tightly around the arm for a few …

This study tested two non-drug treatments for chronic muscle pain in the neck and shoulders. 32 adults with this condition were randomly assigned to receive either high-intensity laser therapy or shockwave therapy over 4 weeks. Researchers measured which treatment was better at r…

This study tested if a newer treatment called shock wave therapy works better than standard physical therapy for improving forearm burn scars. 80 adults with scars from partial-thickness burns received one of the two treatments for 8 weeks. Researchers used ultrasound scans and q…

This study tested whether combining two physical treatments—shockwave therapy and cold therapy—could better reduce shoulder pain and stiffness in people who developed rotator cuff tendonitis after a stroke. Thirty stroke survivors were divided into groups to receive either standa…

This study tested whether Pilates or Gyrotonic exercise is better at helping cancer survivors manage nerve damage caused by chemotherapy. The nerve damage causes pain, numbness, and balance problems, which greatly increase the risk of falls. Researchers enrolled 100 adults who ha…

This study tested if combining a special physical therapy technique with virtual reality (VR) games could help adults with arm burns. The goal was to see if this fun, engaging approach could improve how they walk, reduce their fear of moving the injured arm, and help with overall…

This study tested two different hands-on physical therapy techniques to see which works better for reducing neck pain and correcting forward head posture. Forty-five adults with chronic neck pain received either upper neck mobilization, a specific muscle release technique, or sta…

This study tested whether a treatment called radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy could reduce pain and disability from headaches that start in the neck. 135 adults with chronic neck-related headaches received either a low-dose, medium-dose, or fake version of the shock wave …

This study tested whether two hands-on physical therapy techniques could help adults with ongoing neck pain. Researchers worked with 100 participants to see if gently mobilizing the ribs and releasing tension in the breathing muscle (the diaphragm) could reduce pain and improve n…

This study compared two different hands-on physical therapy techniques to help people who developed jaw pain, tightness, and limited mouth opening after radiation treatment for head and neck cancer. It involved 115 adult survivors who were at least 6 months past their radiation t…

This study tested whether charcoal-infused toothbrush bristles collect less bacteria than standard nylon bristles. Thirty-six healthy adults and children used either a charcoal or regular toothbrush at home for one day and one week. Researchers then counted the bacteria on return…
