Abstract: The treatment of myofascial pain in athletes requires a set of rehabilitation techniques that aim to be effective quickly. In this context, dry needling (DNY) has shown interesting results due to its ability to reduce pain in the short term. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the role of DNY in managing myofascial shoulder pain in overhead athletes. PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science were screened up to March 2024, to identify studies that met the following inclusion criteria: overhead athletes with… Show more

It is essential to consider pain as an indicative factor for the load capacity, with a progressive load needed to allow complete and optimal tissue regeneration [ 18 , 19 ]. When returning to play, it is important to apply the correct progression of sport-specific training, which is enabled by the sanitary staff’s constant monitoring and correct communication with the technical staff [ 6 ].…”
