Traditional Thai massage (TM) and muscle energy (ME) technique have been used to treat patients with MPS for long time but head-to-head comparisons of these interventions have not been established. Aim: The aim of the current study was to compare the effects of TM and the ME technique on pain intensity (PI), pressure pain threshold (PPT), neck disability (ND), and neck flexion range of motion (NFROM) in patients with chronic neck pain associated with myofascial trigger points (MTrPs). Design: A randomized, single-blinded clinical trial. Setting: Department of Physical Therapy, School of Integrative Medicine, Mae Fah Luang University. Population: Forty-five patients with chronic neck pain associated with MTrPs were recruited. Methods: The patients were randomly allocated to the TM, ME, or control groups, with each having eight treatment sessions over a period of two weeks. PI, PPT, ND, and NFROM were assessed before, immediately after the first treatment session, and one day after the last treatment session. Results: Based on the results, both TM and the ME technique resulted in a significant improvement in all parameters (p Conclusions: The application of TM or the ME technique can be a practical alternative approach for the treatment of chronic neck pain associated with MTrPs.

Methods: Twenty-two patients from 18 to 60 years old were randomly allocated to receive 30-min sessions of TSMSE or 12 sessions of self-care education (SCE) over a period of 4 weeks. The pain intensity using a visual analog scale (VAS), back flexibility using a sit-and-reach test, and disability using the Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability questionnaire, were measured before and after the treatment period. Results: The results indicated that the TSMSE group showed significant improvements in all of the parameters after the 4-week treatment period (p  Conclusion: These results suggest that the TSMSE treatment was an effective intervention for decreasing pain and disability and increasing back flexibility among the NSLBP patients.
