Official title
Superficial Dry Needling of the Trigeminal Nerve Innervation Sensory Field for Cervicogenic Headache: a Randomized Clinical Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
It is unknown if applying superficial dry needling to the trigeminal innervation field improves pain and disability for patients with cervicogenic headaches. The aim of this study is to determine if superficial dry needling of the trigeminal innervation field improves pain, neck mobility, and disability in patients with cervicogenic headaches. It will also be examined if psychosocial factors such as stress, anxiety, depression and self efficacy influence improvements in pain, range of motion and neck disability.
