Summary
This study tested whether dry needling (thin needles placed into muscle knots) combined with neck exercises works better than standard treatments like TENS and ultrasound for people with long-lasting mechanical neck pain. Forty adults aged 25 to 65 took part, receiving treatment three times a week for four weeks. Researchers measured pain, neck movement, and daily function to see which approach helped more.
