This research compares how well the Graston Technique and Myofascial Release Therapy work to reduce pain and improve flexibility for those struggling with De Quervain's tenosynovitis
This randomized trial compared the Graston Technique against Myofascial Release in 32 patients with De Quervain's tenosynovitis. Participants were randomly split into two groups of 16, with both receiving baseline ultrasound and exercise therapy. Over four weeks (eight sessions total), outcomes were evaluated using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale, the DASH questionnaire, and goniometer measurements to determine the impact on pain and range of motion.
