Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı; kronik miyofasiyal boyun ağrısı (KMBA) olan hastalarda, enstrüman destekli yumuşak doku mobilizasyonu (EDYDM) ve/veya egzersizin ağrı, postüral denge, uyku ve yaşam kalitesi üzerine olan etkilerini araştırmaktı. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya 30-50 yaş arası KMBA olan 36'sı kadın, 36'sı erkek toplam 72 hasta dâhil edildi. Hastalar randomize EDYDM grubu, egzersiz grubu ve plasebo grubu olacak şekilde 3 gruba ayrıldı. Bireylerin demografik ve fiziksel özellikleri olgu rapor formu ile kaydedildi. EDYDM grubuna sadece EDYDM, egzersiz grubuna ev egzersiz programı, kontrol grubuna ise plasebo EDYDM uygulandı. Ağrı şiddeti, Görsel Analog Skalası [Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)] ile, denge Dört Adım Kare Testi (DAKT) ve Tek Ayak Üzerinde Durma Testi (TAÜDT) ile, uyku kalitesi Pittsburg Uyku Kalitesi İndeksi (PUKİ) ile, yaşam kalitesi SF-36 Yaşam Kalitesi Ölçeği ile değerlendirildi. Ölçümler tedavi öncesi ve sonrasında tekrarlandı. Bulgular: Çalışmada, EDYDM grubu ve egzersiz grubunda tedavi öncesi ve sonrası VAS, DAKT, TAÜDT, PUKİ ve SF-36 yaşam kalitesi ölçeklerinin alt parametrelerinde anlamlı fark vardı (p0,05). Sonuç: Çalışma sonucunda EDYDM ve egzersiz grubunda VAS, DAKT, TAÜDT, PUKİ ve SF-36 yaşam kalitesi ölçeklerinin alt parametrelerinde anlamlı gelişmeler görülürken, plasebo grubunda anlamlı bir fark yoktu.

Objective: The aim of this study is; to investigate the effects of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) and/or exercise on pain, postural balance, sleep and quality of life in patients with chronic myofascial neck pain (CMNP). Material and Methods: A total of 72 patients, 36 females and 36 males, with CMNP between the ages of 30 and 50 years were included in the study. The patients were divided into 3 groups as randomized IASTM group, exercise group and placebo group. Demographic and physical characteristics of the individuals were recorded with the case report form. Only IASTM was applied to the IASTM group, home exercise program to the exercise group, and placebo IASTM to the control group. Pain severity was assessed using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), balance was assessed using Four Step Square Test (FSST) and the One-Leg Stand Test (OLST), sleep quality was assessed using Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), while assessment of quality of life was done using SF-36 Quality of Life Scale. The measurements were repeated before and after the study. Results: In the study, there was a significant difference in the sub-parameters of VAS, FSST, OLST, PSQI and SF-36 quality of life scales before and after treatment in the IASTM group and exercise group (p0.05). Conclusion: As a result of the study, significant improvements were observed in the sub-parameters of the VAS, FSST, OLST, PSQI and SF-36 quality of life scales in the IASTM and exercise group, but no significant results were obtained in the placebo group.
