背景:抑郁症影响了全球成年人口的很大一部分,慢性疼痛患者特别容易患严重抑郁症。疼痛和精神疾病导致自主神经系统失衡,影响心脏功能.肌筋膜释放有望通过解决筋膜功能障碍来改善身心健康。
目的:本研究旨在探讨肌筋膜释放对慢性颈痛和抑郁症患者情绪状态和自主神经系统功能的影响。此外,它旨在评估肌筋膜释放对筋膜特性的影响,疼痛强度和敏感性,和颈椎的活动范围。
方法:实验研究。
结果:该研究显示肌筋膜释放组有显著增强,例如大幅减少疼痛感知和僵硬,增加了颈椎的活动范围,心率变异性,积极的影响,和压力疼痛阈值。这些改进的效果大小从小到大。在弹性和色调方面没有观察到显著差异。
结论:研究结果表明,肌筋膜释放对慢性颈痛和抑郁症患者有积极影响,特别是在减少疼痛强度。将肌筋膜释放整合到治疗方法中可能是有益的。然而,需要进一步的研究来证实和扩展这些发现,探索长期影响,更好地理解某些结果的临床意义。

BACKGROUND: Depression affects a significant portion of the global adult population, with chronic pain patients being particularly susceptible to severe depression. Pain and mental illness contribute to an imbalance in the autonomic nervous system, affecting heart function. Myofascial release promises to improve mental and physical health by addressing fascial dysfunctions.
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to investigate the influence of myofascial release on emotional states and autonomic nervous system functioning in individuals with chronic neck pain and depression. Additionally, it seeks to evaluate the myofascial release effect on fascial properties, pain intensity and sensitivity, and cervical spine range of motion.
METHODS: Experimental Study.
RESULTS: The study revealed significant enhancements in the myofascial release group, such as a substantial reduction in pain perception and stiffness, increased range of motion of the cervical spine, heart rate variability, positive affect, and pressure pain threshold. The effect sizes of these improvements ranged from small to large. No significant differences were observed in elasticity and tone.
CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggest that myofascial release has a positive impact on individuals with chronic neck pain and depression, particularly in reducing pain intensity. Integrating myofascial release into treatment approaches may be beneficial. However, further research is needed to confirm and expand upon these findings, explore long-term effects, and better understand the clinical significance of certain outcomes.
