Neck-shoulder pain is a prevalent problem in office workers. These complaints are often related to myofascial dysfunctions of neck and shoulder muscles, in which the upper trapezius is a vulnerable victim due to prolonged static postures, repetitive upper limb movements and stress, often present during office and computer work. Myofascial dysfunction of the upper trapezius muscle is often referred to as "trapezius myalgia (TM)". Trapezius myalgia is clinically diagnosed with the presence of pain, palpable stiffness and tenderness of the upper part of the trapezius muscle. Several studies show that myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) play an important role in the development and maintenance of myofascial pain and trapezius myalgia. Myofascial trigger points are defined as hyperirritable nodules in a contracture of skeletal muscle fibers, which can cause pain symptoms, motor symptoms as well as autonomic symptoms.
