Each block with 4 allocations, consisting 2 allocation for intervention and 2 for control group will be considered. Six possible sequence of treatment allocation in each block will be listed and each one will be written on a card. Each time a block will be selected and the sequence of treatment will be registered until the treatment allocations become completed for all 30 participants (8 blocks). The randomization was performed by a methodologist. Allocation concealment will be done by the main researcher. On each 30 cards a sequence will be written and sealed. Pockets will be put in a box. A pocket will be allocated for each participant based on order of enrollment, Blinding description: In this study, the examiner is blind. In this way, the examiner or data collector, during pain and joint function examination, is not aware of the type of treatment that patients receive when assessing pain and function.

Intervention 1: "Intervention group1: TENS" Physiotherapy with TENS (NEURDYN) equipment is performed for 8 sessions(4 consecutive days per week) within 2 weeks. Carbon electrodes (6.5×4.5cm) are placed on the tender and painful muscles with 75 HZ frequency and 0.75 millisecond pulse width for 20 minutes per session. Intervention 2: "Intervention group2: Low level laser"Low-power lasers with Azore device apply every other day for 10 sessions, with a dose of 12 J / cm 2 on a temporal joint.
