Needles vs. pain: can poking muscles ease shoulder suffering?
NCT ID NCT06338488
Summary
This study is testing whether a treatment called dry needling can reduce pain for people with shoulder myofascial pain syndrome. Fifty adults with shoulder pain will receive either real dry needling or a sham (fake) version, with neither the patient nor the person assessing them knowing which one they got. The goal is to see if inserting thin needles into specific, painful muscle knots provides better pain relief and improved shoulder function compared to the sham procedure.
