The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Positional Release Therapy and Active Release Therapy on Pain intensity, Pain Pressure Threshold & Countralateral Side Flexion Cervical Range of Motion in Computer User Via Latent Myofascial Trigger Point .Fourty two volunteers from Shahid Beheshti University Medical Science In Iran, with Latent Trigger Point of Upper Trapezius Muscle ,aged 19-45 years old, were participated in this study. All individuals were randomly classified into three groups. Group (A): Positional Release Technique, Group (B): Active Release Technique and Group (C) : Control with sham treatment. treatment consisted of 3 sessions of ART ,PRT& Control , applied to the over a duration of 1 weeks. The local pain intensity via visual analogous scale (VAS) and Pain pressure threshold (PPT) with algometry , Active Cervical Countralateral Flexion range of motion(CLROM) with goniometry were measured before therapy and 5min after per therapy session and also outcome measures were evaluated and recorded one week after third session as a follow up.
