Nyeri miofasial servikal (NMS) merupakan sumber nyeri umum pada individu dengan nyeri leher kronik nonspesifik. Nyeri dapat bersifat lokal, regional dan dapat juga memiliki banyak titik pemicu nyeri (myofascial trigger points/MTrPs). NMS menyebabkan nyeri di daerah otot servikal maupun fasia di sekitarnya. Nyeri leher menurunkan kualitas hidup, menurunkan produktivitas dan menyebabkan disabilitas sehingga berpengaruh secara sosioekonomi terhadap penderita dan masyarakat.Pengobatan sindrom nyeri miofasial servikal masih belum memuaskan terkait kronisitasnya. Dry needling (DN) adalah salah satu pilihan terapi nonfarmakologi yang bisa diterapkan pada NMS. DN akan mengurangi sensitisasi perifer dan sentral dengan menghilangkan sumber nosisepsi perifer (area MTrPs), memodulasi aktifitas kornu dorsalis dan mengaktifkan jalur inhibisi nyeri sentral.Neurolog sering menangani kasus NMS dan perkembangan DN akhir-akhir ini semakin pesat sebagai manajemen nyeri. Namun, keefektifan terapi DN masih belum jelas. Oleh karena itu, pengetahuan tentang peran DN pada NMS ini penting untuk diketahui oleh para neurolog. Artikel kami akan membahas tentang peran DN pada sindrom nyeri miofasial servikal.Kata kunci: Dry needling, nyeri miofasial servikal, terapi, myofascial trigger point

Focused Clinical Question: In patients with myofascial trigger point pain, does dry needling result in greater decreases in pain compared to sham needling? Clinical Bottom Line: The evidence supporting dry needling as more effective than sham needling in reducing patients’ pain is mixed.

Purpose and Hypothesis: Trigger points (TrP) is one of the most common causes of musculoskeletal disorders. Myofascial trigger point in vastus lateralis muscle has been reported high prevalently in subjects with patellofemoral pain syndrome. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of dry needling and kinesio tape on trigger point in vastus lateralis muscle. Randomized controlled trial designed to investigate the effect of Dry Needling (DN) and Kinesio Taping (KT) on pain intensity and knee disability after session’s treatment in individuals with trigger point (TrP) in Vastus Lateralis (VL) muscle. Methods: 30 subjects with TrP in the VL muscle participated in this study. Subjects were randomly assigned to a DN group ([Formula: see text]) or KT group ([Formula: see text]). Results: Statistical analysis (paired [Formula: see text]-test) revealed a significant improvement in VAS during activity and KOOS scores after three sessions treatment in both of groups compared with before treatment ([Formula: see text]). But PPT was not increased after one week treatment. VAS using an algometer was decreased only at DN group ([Formula: see text]). The results showed no significant changes in variables immediately after intervention. The ANCOVA revealed no significant differences between the DN and KT groups on the post-measurement VAS during activity, VAS using an algometer, PPT, KOOS scores ([Formula: see text]). Conclusion: DN and KT produce an improvement in pain intensity and knee disability and may be prescribed for PFPS subjects with TrP in VL muscle especially when pain relief is the goal of the treatment.
