Summary

This study tests whether dry needling of a ligament in the pelvis can reduce pain and disability in people with sacroiliac joint dysfunction. Sixty adults aged 40-65 will receive either real or sham dry needling plus standard physical therapy. The goal is to see if this technique improves pain, movement, and daily function.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
dry needling
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a new, non-drug way to ease pain and improve movement for people with sacroiliac joint problems.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 60 participants. The treatment is novel and may not provide more benefit than sham needling or standard physical therapy.
