Effectiveness of Percutaneous Electrolysis and Dry Needling vs. Standard Therapy for Whiplash Syndrome

The main objective of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of two interventions (PIE vs DDN) in adult patients who have suffered a LCS after a traffic accident and comparing it with a standard physiotherapy program. As a secondary objective, the investigators will analyze the reduction of intrafibrillar blood flow and muscle elasticity perceived by the patient in the long term and the reduction of pain and disability appreciated by the patient. It is hypothesized as an alternative hypothesis that percutaneous electrolysis and/or deep dry needling intervention in combination with standard physiotherapy will give better clinical outcomes in patients with active trigger point LCS following a road traffic accident compared to the current standard physiotherapy intervention. The researchers will compare both invasive physical therapy techniques with standard treatment to see if these techniques are more effective in treating whiplash syndrome.
